    Determine Current Model View Angles

    I had a quick play with this and this shows what I think would work.. rotate round Z by 39.14 degrees and then back about the Y by 22.05 degrees. see what you think

    show reference sets journal

    i don't think the "show exact" does anything to help it. I'm using the code as it is without any mods. I do have the defaults set as you said, but that doesn't look like its affecting things If you create a simple assembly you can test what I've found... 1. create a top level assy file. 2...

    show reference sets journal

    sometimes I get this error, when I run the code, after taking all objects out of the reference set, its a bit random Any help appreciated.

    show reference sets journal

    I found a journal which shows all objects in the MODEL reference set, but it's not working properly. I'm using NX2212. Is there a problem with the code or am I doing something wrong? when I run the journal in an assembly, on one of the components, I double click the component to make it the...

    Component Creator - with Smart Sorting feature

    I completely understand, thanks for giving ALL of us your time, & great advice. (I'm using the native one now) I did find a minor annoyance..., when you hover over a part name in an assembly, it says MYSTERY_MESH instead of the part name....., i'll keep chipping away.. I can't PM you on here...

    Component Creator - with Smart Sorting feature

    Hi Tamas, Thanks for your help, this is "bloody brilliant".... I had to edit the code as the second input box had been disabled. I edited from line 244 to look like this, to get that back again.. 'If assemblyidQST Then Dim assemblyid As String = InputBox("Please enter your required ID Name -...

    Component Creator - with Smart Sorting feature

    Hi Tamas, I've been using my edited version of your component creator, but I've noticed that it won't add more components, I must've broken it... can you help me to remove the "PANEL" on the end of the part numbering, so I don't break the rest of the code. I love this journal, i'm just not good...

    Automatic Measure and Export Excel

    Grip create new .prt from template?

    NX uses a template part for new part creation, but the Grip file I'm using, then seems to create all the other parts from a "blank" template (from the customer defaults setting), which means, any info, I add to the template part, don't get included into the parts (only the first one that I run...

    Grip create new .prt from template?

    Thanks for the reply Ben...can you explain? where is the configuration file? another approach could be to use the seed file that is in session when the grip is run, ie: get it to copy the work part. the grip is used to create a directory of part file's and a cascading folder structure, all parts...

    Grip create new .prt from template?

    I wonder if anyone can help me to edit a grip file, it works fine, but it creates a bunch of files, using the BLANK part, I'm wondering if i can get in to use my start part template instead. the GRIP documents seems to read that this can't be done.
