    Circular pattern curves without rotation

    Is this available in NX7.5? I probably should have mentioned my version beforehand...

    Circular pattern curves without rotation

    Thanks for the reply cowski. Is that option under pattern curve, elsewhere in sketcher or somewhere entirely different? I have so far been using Edit > Move Object to create copies of the curves, but "same as input" isn't contained in there...

    Circular pattern curves without rotation

    Hi, Can anyone tell me if there is a way to create a circular pattern from a set of curves that does not require the curves themselves to rotate? Basically I want to translate a rectangle to 36 points around a circle (10 degrees apart) without changing the angle of the rectangle's sides. I have...

    NX 7.5 "Edge colour"?

    Hi John, I'm not using a shaded view actually. It's just a wireframe view in which I've set the line colours to match the model using RMB -> Style -> General tab -> Wireframe colour source -> From face. As it happens, your solution still kind of worked. I went to View dependent edit and clicked...

    NX 7.5 "Edge colour"?

    Body/face colour change within an assembly

    Hi John, Thanks for the reply. I had already toggled specific component colour off, but I realised I had been modifying the colour with the part set as Work Part, rather than Displayed Part. Finally got it to work - don't know why I didn't spot that sooner. Thanks Rhys

    Create new part in Assembly

    Hi rocket, If you're modeling within the assembly (not within the existing part), just use Project Curve and create your model geometry, then use "Create Component" within the 'Assemblies' application toolbar. Just select any geometry you want to be included in your new part and give it a...

    Copied component showing multiple lines in parts list?

    Hi, Have you tried packing the components? Right click either Part 4, 5 or 6 in the assembly navigator and click "Pack". See if this updates the parts list on your drawing to have 1 line with a qty of 2. Rhys

    Body/face colour change within an assembly

    Hi, I have an assembly in which all the parts are required to have the correct colour and appear as the would in real life. I'm using Edit Object Display > Face Filter > Change colour to modify the face colour to whatever each part requires, but I wish to keep all of the body colours in 'Light...
