FYI, once the pax files are installed/loaded into Teamcenter, you'll need to be sure to update the Teamcenter preference that tells NX where to look for the templates. For NX 12 that preference is TC_NX_FileNewPaxFiles_NX12. If you aren't running NX 12 replace 12 with the version you are on.
We know how to correct the issue after it occurs, but we cannot figure out why it is happening in the first place. Like I said, this happens to a specific user who is doing the save-as right in NX. I've watched his process, which is the same as mine, but cannot spot any difference. Wondering...
Having a really weird issue where the "Name" (not DB_PART_NAME) but the "name" in Component Properties > General Tab, is not updating when a part is save-as'd. I.e., save-as a part AAA3793661-LATER to AAA3793661-12345. The part in the Assembly navigator is correct, when hovering over, or the...
Another option I like to use is Tetra 4D's 3D PDF Convertor http://www.tetra4d.com/
It's a bit pricey for a license to convert to 3D pdf's, but it's a very useful tool. Once converted, ANYONE with adobe reader can open it, rotate, change views, turn on and off components, etc. It also works...
I'm currently using/maintaining a program that writes listing window information to a network stored text file. I wouldn't really call it "parsing", but we are using the listing window info. This program is part of our export logging. This program runs automatically when someone chooses and...
Based on John's NX 10 demo in Rochester yesterday, you probably wont be disappointed. There are now 4 icon sizes (small, medium, large, extra large). I believe he said the rule is 3 small, 2 medium, 1 large or extra large icons stacked vertically. There is also the option to have large w/o...
This isn't really an answer to your question (as I would like to know if that is possible too), but we use the routing part library to apply stock. All of our stocks are added to the .ptb files and organized into folders. When adding stock through the routing library, you can right click and...
Hi all,
I've done quite a bit of searching on this, and read through the help files, but can't seem to get this to work. I am trying to make a (simple for now) program to select components and add them to a component group. (I know this can be easily done without a journal, but this will...
I should have explained a little better. We use the taper for constraining on NPT threads ONLY. Since NPT threads are tapered, this actually gives us a good representation of what is actually being manufactured. The original intent of my question was to determine if the threads or threaded...
Is there any way to physically make a taper when creating a threaded hole? We currently use a UDF that creates a taper that we can then use a fit constraint on for threaded parts, but we would like to be able to do this with the threaded hole feature. If this is not possible, how is everyone...
EXCELLENT!
Tweaked 2 things and it works great! Thank you so much! I especially like the "PadLeft(3, "0"c)", our previous method was a little less elegant.
Again, thanks a ton!
All,
I currently have a .vb journal program (not written by me) that takes one attribute value (DB_Sequence_No) and sets it to another attribute value (Callout). This journal worked great in NX 6, but after upgrading to NX 8.0.3, the attribute is set using "Apply to Occurrence in Assembly"...
