Hey Past WDAG, it's me again. Here's the workaround: 1) Pick a folder, somewhere nice that won't get tampered with 2) Add an environment variable UGII_USER_DIR and refer to that folder 3) Add a /startup subfolder within the USER_DIR 4) Drop unlock_f1.men into the /startup folder

Hi all, I switched companies again, and I'm running NX 2312. I want to resurrect this old thread: https://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=431965 I can't seem to get those solutions to work anymore, which makes sense since it's been 7 years. Can anyone help me unlock F1 so that I can...

Ok, I figured out what the issue was. I was putting the change_help_menu.men in the wrong folder. It needs to go in the folder defined by UGII_SITE_DIR. Thanks anyone who reads this, and this is a note to future WDAG the next time we upgrade and something breaks.

The solutions given by PhoeNX and cpttrips back in thread561-431965 were great for NX 9 and NX 11. But my company has just moved to NX 1988, and I don't think these solutions work anymore. Does anyone know how to override the F1 key going to Help so I can remap it to something else? Thanks!

Hi all, My company is updating to Teamcenter 13.2 with active workspace. In the past, when we've been on the Rich Client, I have been able to use override folders and revision rules in order to capture the state of an assembly. My rough workflow is like this: - Identify a date when the...

Cowski: Yes, that looks like exactly the same issue I have! Unfortunately, when I mess around with Advanced Studio, I don't get any popups at all! Messing around with the Advanced Studio options doesn't seem to fix anything for me. When I invert show/hide, the issue shows up, but now I can...

Thanks for the link. Yes, I know all about faceting, and I convinced my company to have "View" be the default for our seed part. This is separate from that. Alas, I may just have to deal with this until we finally update to a newer version of NX...

It happens with just those three bodies (green/red/yellow that I showed in my first post). Nothing very far away. Do you know how to run NX with no GPU?

No, it happens on my coworkers' computers as well. It follows the part, not the computer. It only happens with this part, not with other parts.

And here's a screenshot of a rib from a single body, with and without the graphics issue:

No, it's not duplicate bodies. (For the dummy part I showed above, I made that fresh and it only has 3 bodies). Furthermore, when this graphics issue occurs, it affects the visual representation of all parts. Here's a snapshot of a single body elsewhere in the part, where the edge is all messed up:

Hi all, Every now and then I run across a part that gets corrupted graphics. This is on NX 11, linked with TC. All I can do right now is share screenshots of non-confidential bodies within this part. (Unfortunately I can't share the part itself because of company confidentiality... and when I...

Hey all, Static wireframe didn't help me - the problem wasn't that it was hidden. I just needed to turn on "Control Points" in the selection intent toolbar. Thanks!

Hi all, I'm having some trouble with coordinate systems (not datum CSYS, just CSYS objects). This is the type that I'm talking about: https://imgur.com/bUj9kKg They are generated as part of a script when I use PCB Exchange to import a board and components from the EEs. I want to snap...

Toost, There are lots of ways to look at things. I'm sorry that my post has upset you so, but I wonder why that is. The only thing I will argue for universally is additional choice. I'm very grateful to PheoNX and cpttrips for opening the door to me to customize my own setup. Happy CADing...
