Is there a way to add text to the bottom of a rendered image? I have created numerous parts in NX 8.5 and am now creating multiple renderings of each one. Each of these images will go into a single pdf later for documentation purposes. I need a label with each image in the pdf to indicate...

I have created several assemblies within NX 8.5. I am now creating drawings within the drafting module of each one. I am not sure what could have changed, but I can no longer set the Reference Set to "Model" within the drawing file. In the first few drawings, I could right click the part-name...

I feel like this has a really easy solution, but I can't seem to get it figured out. Several months ago I created a new material for a certain alloy of steel that was not included in the NX library. I exported that material to an XML file from that first part. In numerous parts since, I have...

It appears the only way to make that work is from the assembly view when both pieces are in an assembly. If (for example) Assembly 1 contains Part1 & Part2. I make Part 2 the work part and then select the Insert - Associative Copy - WAVE Geometry Linker - Sketch. I then go and select sketch 1...

Using NX 8.5

When creating parts, we often copy sketches from other parts to use as references. We copy a sketch and then change all the dimension formulas to be interpart references to the original part & dimension. When copying a sketch from part 1 to part 2, we never do the "Copy Resolved Geometry"...

I just performed the pattern feature operation in NX 8.5, and I am getting a yellow triangle alert next to it in the part navigator. The features I "patterned" were fairly complex, at least by my standards. I included 14 different features in the pattern operation. A few of those features...

I never really got resolution on one of these issues. If I make a new part, create a sketch, and then draw in 2 lines (one vertical, and one horizontal). I then create a 2nd sketch and draw in a line at some angle. Say I want to make this line parallel to the horizontal line. I click on the...

By the way...this is all in NX 8.5. I am fairly certain that using the Pattern along a curve isn't the method to achieve this goal. So I am mostly interested in a suggestion of how to achieve it. Thanks

I am working with a part that has a conical body. I would like to create cutouts around the entire conical body. I can't give the part file, but a sample image is attached. I create the first ring by drawing in the cutout profile and then revolving (with subtract) around the longitudinal axis...

No warnings or errors. I would say yes to the 8.5 format...I loaded each file in 8.5 and then saved in 8.5. It is probably just some bug, so I just redid the constraints

No I can't do a screendump. I'm running version 8.5, but this part was made by someone else in a previous version. I get the list of constraints, but it isn't much help. It appears that several other parts have also been constrained to this "partially constrained" part as well. It lists 7...

How is it possible to have a part that is partially constrained, but there are no degrees of freedom? In my assembly, one of my parts is displaying that it is only partially constrained; however, it should be fully. I can't move or rotate the part. In addition, when I select "Show Degrees of...

This seems like a really simple task, but I cannot get it to work. On sheet 1 of my drawing, I have my "base view" with a couple section views added. Sheet 1 is full, so I created a new sheet 2. I'd like to use the "base view" drawing on sheet 1 as the parent for section C-C, which will need...

I am using the Drafting application for the first time. When I add my assembly to the drawing, the coordinate system from every part is also included. I know I can use Ctrl-W and then hide the Datums. However that hides every single one of them. How can I hide all the subcomponents but keep...

The method described above has worked well for me numerous times. I open assemblies with the "Partial Loading" off and then Save As/Rename each part. All of the interpart expressions update as needed to the new file names. The issue is that the number of files and assemblies that utilize...

This did appear to be an issue with the graphics card. Our IT people ran some updates to the driver software and that seemed to fix the issue.

Is there an option to fix the following issue I am having? When I create an object in NX 8.5, it seems to take a exorbitant amount of time to highlight. The size of the object does not seem to matter. If I create a simple cylindrical tube using a revolve, I have this issue. Every time the...

I said it was on NX 8.5. But I found the icon for the image you attached. I think that will solve the problem. thanks

Is there a way to specify the hierarchy or order in which NX 8.5 uses for selecting objects? For example, when I hover over an arc, the default selection is the center of the arc. I have to wait until the ... for the Quick-Picks comes up and then select the arc. I would like to have the arc...
