I had stated I changed the assembly load options but it didn't work. I think I found a workaround though. I unchecked the option to skip the add component dialog (in customer defaults) on click-drag additions. That way I can change the reference set on load.
I really wish you could access...
When adding parts to my assembly, it always defaults to how the part was saved. I changed my load options to default to something else, but it doesn't work. It loads "Model" and I would like to change it to "Detail" by default as that is what was used in our legacy parts as the default. Don't...
Why isn't the "type" option available in the dimension dialog box? This would make it so much easier to switch back and forth.
Also, is there a way to change how the tolerance is displayed? It is currently 10H7(0.015/0) where the H7 is always first. Is there a way to change it to put the H7...
Thank you. That solved it. I'm not sure if this will be our fix, but it gives me an option at least. Thanks everyone!
And if anyone ever comes up with another alternative, I'd love to hear it.
Is there a way to make datum feature symbols stand out on a drawing? When people look at prints, they always have a hard time locating the datum callouts. They have asked about possibly shading them, but I see problems with this as well. Has anyone come up with a good way to make them easier...
I am having problems opening a certain NX5 file in NX9 (I have tried hundreds of others with no problem). We use master model so there is a .prt file, and a -drw.prt file. The only component in the -drw.prt file is the .prt file... no other reference components. The .prt file opens just fine...
Never mind. I think I found the environment variables to add:
6.Set the environment variable to specify the location of the customized data tables.
◦UGII_SCREW_CLEARANCE_HOLE_STANDARD_DIR
◦UGII_THREADED_HOLE_STANDARD_DIR
◦UGII_DRILL_SIZE_HOLE_STANDARD_DIR
I would like to locate the nx502_Threaded_Hole_Standard.xml file to a shared network so that I can easily edit it from one location to eliminate distribution to downstream users. How is this possible as I don't see this in the ugii_env.dat file?
Thanks,
Matt
No and that is what is really confusing me. Somehow it uses either an attribute or something of the sort to name the first sheet. The rest follow suit but it looks like just straight text to me. I'm not sure if there is some sort of code that names the first sheet behind the scenes or how it...
Well I don't see an image, but that's fine. I highly doubt it is "impossible" as we somehow do it right now in NX5. The problem that I'm having is figuring out how they accomplished this. As I configure NX9, I need to come up with a solution to this problem. Anybody have an idea?
Currently all of my new drafting sheets come in as Sheet "Sheet 1". Is there anyway to get this to show up as an attribute-1 instead? So if I had an attribute with a value of BODY, my sheet names would be:
BODY-1
BODY-2
and so on. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Matt
I guess this will have to be a future project for me. I will first have to spend a little time on www.nxjournaling.com. :)
Currently I just recorded a journal to import my part. It works and I guess that's all that matters. Haha. Thanks cowski and when I find more time to attack this I'll...
Ha! If only we had interns year around here. I could combine the two journals, but it only imports the part to the active sheet. It would be nice if it imported the part to all sheets in the drafting file. If I had a journal file to accomplish that, then I could combine them and have all...
I currently have a journal file to delete all of my old titleblocks (from all sheets at once). Then I have to go to each sheet individually and run smaller journal files to import the titleblock of choice. Instead, I would like to import my new titleblock into every sheet in 1 step. Does...
Hi, I was going to modify this journal file to delete any groups with a name that includes MD, but it doesn't work.
I modified the below journal line:
Const targetGroup As String = "DWG_STATUS_TAB"
to say:
Const targetGroup As String = "MD*"
but it doesn't work. It gives no errors. If I...
