    Teamcenter Edit Properties Dialogue Box Dissapears

    Teamcenter Edit Properties Dialogue Box Disappears When a user clicks edit properties (ie to edit the name) it pops up with the check out box, but the actual dialogue box to edit the details doesn't appear. I have tried: Reinstalling Java (we currently use 7.51 due to other applications)...

    Open file from Explorer

    I am unable to open CAD files from explorer (windows 10) On clicking the file a NX window opens but i then have to either navigate to the file via "open" or if it is a PRT file i can drop it into the window. STP files does not allow the drop option. After a quick google, i have looked into the...

    COM Error - NX8.5 Excel 365

    John, Thank you for your reply. 365 is installed locally but licenses etc are on the cloud. It seems to work on some machines but not others.... which is a bit strange. I have spoken with Team who have asked siemens directly and they ahve said that the cloud can cause issues.... Thanks again

    COM Error - NX8.5 Excel 365

    We have just upgraded our office suite to 365 but some machines are having errors when updating parts tables using the Excel add-on. I have checked all the options files and the UG add-on is active and has the same attributes as those on machines that do update there parts table via excel 365...

    VacForm Thinning

    Are there any tools available within NX8.5 that could assist in creating thinned vacform surfaces? We have created a control face but need to create a thinned offset surface to allow nests to sit flush due to the large draw distance of the vaform tool. The thinning ranges from 0.2mm to aroun...

    Deep Draw Thinning of Vac Formed Sheets

    Section has been attached This is the control face, the offset face will need to be thinned, hence the requirement of a variable offset. We have a measurement report, so know how much thinning will be required at certain points around the forming...

    Deep Draw Thinning of Vac Formed Sheets

    Creo 2.0 - ENG III Pack I am relatively new to creo (especially the surfacing & Tooling side of things) so was wondering if i could have some help. I am creating tooling for a deep draw vacformed part (draw is approx 600mm), which has come from our Industrial design department. The Top (A...

    Different Simp Rep other Than Master as Default

    Hi, Pretty new to Creo, so may be an easy one. Ive created a few Reps of an assembly, but would like to use one of them as default (ie when someone else pulls the assembly to their workspace via PDMLink), the assembly loads using the newly created default simp rep rather than the master rep it...

    Stepped / Segmented Section view in 3D

    Hi, yes this is on the 3D rather than 2D. As noted in the original post we have used a cut (when sectioning a part) or assembly cut (when sectioning an assy) but as John metntioned, although it gives the desired effect, its kind of a "bodge". However, if the PMI license is required, it may be...

    Stepped / Segmented Section view in 3D

    we dont have PMI licesnes which would now explain why it doesnt work in the lightweight section. Has this always been the case?, im sure that I could do it in older versions? The way we have got around it before to to use to sketch our section and cut (or assembly cut) the section out. Thanks...

    Stepped / Segmented Section view in 3D

    NX 8.5 I would like to create a stepped / segemented section view within the 3D model. I know this is possible in 2D by adding segments to a standard section. I have managed to get round this by creating a cutter and either doing a cut or assy cut, but wonder if there is an easier way using...

    Sketch Lines not visable when editing them through an Assembly

    we are in the process of updating our drivers as some users have experienced Rotation/Pan/Zoom errors (the screen locks up on load), which TEAM have suggested. Hopefully updating them will also solve this problem. Thanks to all that have contributed.

    Sketch Lines not visable when editing them through an Assembly

    in the part, the sketch is located on Layer 21. I have added this to the visable section in view selection, but still only the dimensions appear when in sketcher, when editing the part through the assembly.

    Sketch Lines not visable when editing them through an Assembly

    no, not obscured. If i rotate the plane, i can clearly see that the sketch itself it there, all dimensions are present, but they are just floating as no sketch lines are visible. When i say reload, i was actually referring to just changing the window to the assembly (as im having to modify the...

    Sketch Lines not visable when editing them through an Assembly

    Through the Show/Hide features? yes, but there are limited options when in sketcher
