    Software updates? Which one first.

    Hi Dave, Do I need to install each MR or are they inclusive,10.0.1, then 10.0.2, then 10.0.3 or can I do just 10.0.3? Same for the MP, do I do these individually? Thank you! John

    Hi, I am trying to change the text size of my NX10 dimensions in drafting. I have set me preferences (menu-Preferences-Drafting-lettering-Height) but it does not change the height when I create new dimensions. How do I set these properly? Thank you for any help you can offer! John
