@drawoh - I agree with you, and have worked that way for some time. I recently took a job that supports the Military. Yes, we have full-size printers... perhaps all in North America. Change is slow here.
@IRstuff - Thanks! Do you consider this "Open Source?" May I take and modify?
We have a few different CAD platforms, but we are considering moving all our A-Size and B-Size drawings to WORD since they are usually text, tables or charts. This eliminates maintaining all those drawing formats in CAD.
I keep trying to find a generic WORD template I can start from - I can't...
The company I just started with is really behind the times. Despite using Creo-Windchill, we are still signing E-size paper drawings and scanning them into raster PDFs. We have a project to move us to electronic review and approval, but we are completely reinventing the wheel... and going very...
Thanks
It does not work from Basic Curves either. I spoke to GTAC.
The re-enabled it in 12.0.2
If you go to the Customize search for your Ribbon, you can type in: Legacy. Add that to your ribbon.
That is the current work around.
You can no longer Trim Curve in Drafting as far as we can tell in our newly-upgraded NX12. I can understand NX pushing geometry creation in Modeling as a principle. But we have a lot of legacy layouts and schematics that have curves in Drafting that cannot be edited (trimmed) for revisions...

Attached here is a PDF which shows GE Inspira Font used in the modelhttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=9249ac38-8049-4bc1-959b-06e583fb7260&file=COWSKI-TEST.pdf
I work for a large company that has it's own font - which looks great. We are considering switching to that with our Models, Drawings and PMI.
As we become more model-based, our concern is that when we send our models out for manufacture, if the recipient supplier does not have our font (and...
We are considering a change, but worried that our model-based, PMI parts, could have problems if recipients don't have the same font available. Then it would have to revert to a default, and maybe make mess with formatting. So a "GE" font may fail when outsiders use our PMI.
The company I work at has been using the ancient BLOCKFONT in all CAPS for decades.
Very "old-looking."
Do your drawings have a contemporary look?
Does your company use a modern font?
Which one?
Thanks John, I will give that a try.
I've only used Assembly Cut on single parts. But you're saying it will let me do one cut operation on 150 Target bodies simultaneously? Effectively removing half of a machine?
Does NX have the ability to section, and eliminate half of an assembly, so that the remianing solids can be turned into an STL file for printing?
I have a large fabrication assembly made up of several hundred parts. We'd like to make a 3D Print of half of it (so you can see the internals). It...
* Caution, this is pure whining - but want to know what other users think. Can Siemens put more effort into intuitiveness?
The 50-50-90% rule with NX is that when an operation is binary in nature (50-50%) NX will 90% of the time pick the option I don't want. Does anyone else see this?
One...
