    TMG Thermal Couple Questions

    Hey Guys, I'm starting to use the TMG module in I-DEAS and have a few questions regarding thermal coupling. 1. Is it possible to add a thermal couple between two nodes instead of elements? 2, When I make a thermal couple between elements I am not able to physically view it, therefore leaving...

    NX Constantly Crashing

    Hey Guys, I've been having an issue that's preventing me from accomplishing anything in NX today. I have a simple sketch of a flex circuit that I'm trying to edit. After making a few adjustments to the sketch (trim, dimension, etc), NX crashes and becomes unresponsive. I've worked with much...

    Part Refuses to Move

    This may be a silly question but it's been causing me all sorts of trouble today. I opened up an assembly that includes another assembly part (solar panel). I've gotten rid of all constraints, but I still can't move the solar panel. When I try to, the entire part becomes red. Any way to fix this?

    NX 7.5 STEP Export Problem

    How do I know which file I'm using for interactive NX? I tried exporting the assembly file from within NX with no luck.

    NX 7.5 STEP Export Problem

    I get the following error for all of the files: "Failed to find file using current search options, part left unloaded." I believe this has to do with the fact that the assembly file is not in the same folder as the part files. Any way to fix it without moving the folders around?

    NX 7.5 STEP Export Problem

    I'm trying to export a step file of an assembly in NX 7.5 but I'm not having any success. When I import it back into a new empty model file, only the datum coordinates appear and not the parts themselves. I have all of the components in separate folders with the assembly part in a folder...

    Traceline Path Algorithm Failure

    Yea that turned out to be the problem. I got rid of the trace lines associated with that part and everything is back to normal. Thanks John!

    Traceline Path Algorithm Failure

    Hello, I'm currently using NX 7.5 and am trying to constrain a fairly simple model. When I move a certain part around or constrain it, I receive an error that says "The following error occurred during update: Traceline path algorithm failure." I tried googling it and found nothing. Any idea...
