BubbaK - Thanks for the reply!
That does in fact create the spline but the control points (knots)won't line up at my intersection points. If I try to create a 'Coincident' constraint the command will snap to the closest control point and change the shape. The shape that I'm trying to control...
Good morning and Merry Christmas! I hope you all had a great Christmas day.
I have a question about splines> How to create and how to control them.
I'm trying to change an arc to a spline and indicate what points on the spline will control it's shape. See the image.
Can this be done or do...
Thanks so much Xwheelguy for you explanation. I had given up on this quite a while back and went searching today for a possible answer. I was surprised to see my thread come up in a google search and your answer was exactly what I needed. Thanks again! :)
The thread with the answer as here...
John,
Yes... kind of what I meant my checking the layer settings. The layer that the curves are on are visible in view as well.
Sdeters...the drawing views are made from the model. However the curves are a member of the parent node (the drawing file itself)
In NX 7.5 any curves I placed in 3D...
Hello,
Here's my scenario:
I have an insert modeled up.
I use drawing templates to create setup sheets.
Drag my template onto my model and it creates the drawings. Now the insert model is a child part of the drawing.
With my drawing part file set as the work and displayed part, and, while in...
Thanks for those tips Michael. Much appreciated. I've been administrating NX for a number of years but a few things are tripping me up with this latest jump. We actually now have jumped into NX11 with all the latest version updates. Coming out of NX7.5... so it was a pretty big leap. We have...
Hi everyone!
I am moving our company up from NX 7.5 to NX 10.03 MP19. My question has to do with Moldwizard. Specifically the fact that I can see all my custom components thru the 'Standard Parts' dialogue but when I go to select my slide and lifters, cooling, MW Insert & Ejector Libraries they...
Good morning folks!
I am looking for a way to constrain text in a 3D model that will size according to the pin size selected. Core pins and ejector pins as you all know are slightly different sizes and require different tooling to install in the steel. I want to have text show up in my model...
OK... second and final issue resolved. I turned off the Key field in one of my columns and then reapplied it to the column and all the attributes came thru. Strange I've never experienced that one before! Thanks for ALL the suggestions! Much appreciated.
Yes on both accounts. I've gone back and removed that attribute and re-entered it on a couple of the components and then widened the column out to a ridiculous width and still no change. In fact there are several cataloged components whose attribute are much longer than these. stumped... Funny...
Yeah I understand completely the individual attributes in parts and how they affect how the parts list appears. But my problem was definitely the Key fields. I didn't' check one of the fields because I had hidden that column and forgot about it. Once I dragged the column back out and check the...
As for the 'callout in my attributes' I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Are you talking the attributes of each part? Or the callout in the BOM. We don't run Team Center.
Good morning,
It's been a while but I'll try to recall how I set ours up.
I know that you first have to have your printers and plotters setup as printing devices on you machine. I'm on windows 7 as well.
Then you have to create a Printer Group. That's done under 'File->utilities->Printer...
Good day all.
I'm having a bit of trouble with the BOM. To make it very simple I have 30 ejector pins that are all identical. But instead of getting 1 cataloged item with a quantity of 30 I'm getting 30 lines with a quantity of 1. What am I missing here? Any help is appreciated.
Nemo...
