When I open the part in GM UG, there is indeed an icon that pulls up a window that allows access to the log data in .txt format. I have written a macro that opens the log file, saves it using a generic filename and then closes the part. Seems to work well.
The problem I'm currently having is...
I've since been in touch with the GEES help desk at GM. I'm told that there isn't a way to batch export the DCS File Logs using the GM tool bar at this time.
Upon learning that, I have been playing around with Tools --> Macros within UG and have managed to create a macro to save the Log from...
Subject: NX 3.0 General Motors Toolkit - DCS File Log
How can I extract the DCS File Log from multiple parts using the General Motors Toolkit? I know how to do them individually, but I want to be able to extract and save the logs from multiple part files in a single step.
Unfortunately, the car isn't on the road yet so I can't post the part. Imagine any 3D object - your telephone for example. Now, imagine a section cut through the phone. For every flat (or nearly flat) surface, put two points on that segment of the section line, 3mm from the tangent at each...
I'm creating CMM inspection points. I have cut sections every 100mm (in both the xz and yz planes) on a part that measures roughly 1500mm by 600mm. There is a lot of form to the panel and I will need 2 points (3 mm from each end) on every significant surface on every section line. To answer...
I have cut a multiple sections through a part. I need to create points 3mm from each end of the section curves. Currently, I'm selecting the curve, and creating one point. Then, I re-select the curve, reverse directions and create the second point. I'm hoping someone has a suggestion for a...
Class A is something visible: Like the hood of your car.
Class B is visible but not essential: Like the door aperture.
Class C is not visible, like the seat mounting under the carpet.
When I create multiple elements using a plane, I find that the elements are not 2 dimensional. That is, if I create a section by intersecting faces with a plane, then attempt to go into 2D using a radius on the section, parts of the section do not show up as two dimensional. How is this...
