    3D mouse causing NX to crash

    This has been a common thing where all i am doing is rotating my model using my 3D mouse and the screen stops, then it gives me the "NX has stopped working" message and makes me force close. Ive tried restarting, tried updating drivers. Ive lost countless hours of work cause this happens...

    Export all sheets to 2D DWG in same plane.

    When i go to export a DWG i can choose two settings under the 'Input and Output' tab, either Modeling or Layouts. If i choose layouts and go to the next tab 'Data to Export,' i can choose all sheets or pick and choose individual sheets. BUT, if i do this the views come in to Autocad on...

    UGNX10 Arrangements within the same component in an assembly

    Best way to work through something is to talk through it with someone else.

    UGNX10 Arrangements within the same component in an assembly

    Are the shock assembly files the same assembly with just two arrangements. And you are using the same assembly file in four seperate assemblies (RF, RR, LF, LR)? Or is it two seperate assebly files Front and rear. And then you are using the same Front assembly in on the left and right. Doing...

    UGNX10 Arrangements within the same component in an assembly

    Couldn't you just make a separate arrangement that has the components in the locations you want and just save that as a whole new arrangement rather than one or the other.

    Export DWG with views all on the same plane

    Currently we are trying to export NX drawings to a dwg file. If a section view is used. the dwg file shows the section view as single lines overlaping each other. The end user is only using AutoCAD LT which is 2D only. So we would like to be able make sure every view ends up on the x-y plane. Is...

    Line weights on pdf drawings all the same

    Thanks for the responses. I am using NX 10, and i have tried playing with some of the settings on the print and the export pdf dialogs. Just wondering if there are setting somewhere else and where if so.

    Line weights on pdf drawings all the same

    In NX i have some components that i have purposely shown in a bolder line weight. When export it as a pdf or try to print dirextly from NX the line weight are all the same. Why is that? Do i need to change a setting to be able to keep the lineweights how i have them.

    Ah, that makes sense.

    Step file that retains assembly

    We work with very large assemblies so we have it set to not open the whole thing. Didnt think that it would effect an export. But now i know

    Right after i posted the picture i went and tried just that and it worked. Thanks everybody, really appreciate the time to help me figure this out.

    Step file that retains assembly

    The Assembly load options is set to "From Search Folders" The folders chosen are structured like this "X:\CURRENT PROJECTS (NX)\..." it has all of the folders necessary for all components to open. if the load options didnt the components would load into the assembly. So not sure why it would...

    Step file that retains assembly

    Followed your exact instructions and came out with a step file that was only 30Kb, no where close to 3Mb. Opening it up it looks like only the drawing border came through. No solids or sheets.

    Step file that retains assembly

    no we do not use teamcenter or any file management system. and the only special characters i use in some of the names are _ and - but like i said i tried creating a assembly with a very basic name (model1) and used PhoeNX assembly that he was able to correctly export. And still was not able...

    Step file that retains assembly

    PhoeNX Thanks for the file i opened yours and it imports fine with the componenents ans sub assemblies all in there. Tried doing what you said and i still get just a blank step file when i try to do step214. When i do step203 it doesnt even give me a file it has an error saying: ! ERROR-...

    Step file that retains assembly

    File -> export. And if i have a single part open with multiple bodies in that part with no components it will export just fine. But when i export a part that has no bodies in it, but has multiple subassemblies that have bodies inside of the sub assemblies. It does not export anything at all...

    Step file that retains assembly

    Tried exporting "existing part" as well as exporting "entire part", and both yeild the same thing, and empty step file that is only 4Kb. No bodies in it no assembly structure. Thanks for the response Tomas but still not getting the program to export what it need. Really makes me wonder if...
