    NX8.5 sketch selection scope

    I find this as a real pain as well. Especially when adding dimensions. We're jumping between 7.5 & 8.5 due to customers preference & it's really annoying having to remember to switch this every time. I don't see the logic behind doing this other than to slow progress & waste time. This is almost...

    Change from ISO std to ANSI std dimensions.

    I answered my own question on how to turn the arrow off. Had the SHOW DIMENSION LINE ticked on under the Ordinate set.

    Change from ISO std to ANSI std dimensions.

    I have a drawing/model that is showing the ISO std dimension when I do an ordinate dimension on the drawing. Where do I set or change this so that the ordinate dimension is in an ANSI std format. I don't want the ordinate to show the arrow that I've circled which is per ISO std...

    Identification symbol text changing to ##

    This is what I am seeing in the ID symbols. The parts list is sorted ok but it's sorted by a part property called DET_NO that I manually put into each of the parts to prevent automatic reordering of the BOM...

    Identification symbol text changing to ##

    I'm trying to figure out why some of my identification symbols have suddenly decided to change to ## rather than the item number. The strange thing is I manually entered the number in each balloon according to the parts list. The other thing strange is not all of the balloons have changed. All...

    Adding part property to ID symbol

    That works once the ID symbols are placed to manually edit them but is there a way to have that text placed when the ID symbols are inserted into the drawing. Having to manually go back in & edit each symbol would take a lifetime to do it.

    Adding part property to ID symbol

    When we put ID symbols on an assembly drawing we have a split circle with the detail number on the top & the sheet number of the detail on the bottom. Is there a way to use an attribute from the part property that your attached to for filling in the sheet number. I have an attribute called...

    Non-commercial learning edition of NX?

    Why is it then that NX cannot offer a home license to use where Solidworks & Solidedge allow you to have a home use license. The only difference between the Solidedge home license is the watermark that gets put on the drawings that it is a home license. Also not every company can afford the time...
