Yes I did try that, and didn't have luck. This is an fairly new file created from the ground up in NX9.
I did discover one work around that gives me the right numbers. I check 'automatically place' and I get the right number, but the dimension gets placed on the other side of the vertex. Then I...
Here is a short clip of what I am running into. My goal here is to get a 75 degree dimension, but I keep getting 105. Thanks for your help.

That is strange. How did you create the cube? Did you enter the values 25.4, or did you dynamically drag an extrusion? Was the start point of the extrusion (if thats how you created it) at zero?
I've not heard of something like that before.

I am struggling to get the properly place an angular dimension without the dimension value changing to the complimentary angle.
I believe that in older versions of NX this had do with which half of the edge you selected, and the order you selected the edges. Something seems different here.
I...
I have an old UDF library that we used in NX5 and I am trying to access those UDFs in NX9. I have added the library folder to the 'reuse library' tab, but I am not getting anything.
The situation is that I generated this library in 2007. I came back to work at this company after being away for...
I found a bit of a work around that works great.
While in full screen mode with an assembly open, select a component. Then click the 'find in navigator' button on your selection bar. This will bring up the assembly navigator window. This will bring up the assembly navigator on your screen...
Does anyone know of a way to project a solid body onto a plane and have the output be a sheet body or an outer profile curve.
The goal here is to take a converter housing casting and get a projected area without the aid of mold wizard.
Currently I have been extracting all the edge curves of...
I had this issue in past versions after a particular designer worked on a part. Somehow he had set visible in view layers specifically to a saved view in modeling. To fix I would right click in the window off of the part, click 'replace view' and select any one of the views that popped up and it...
We just set up a new user with NX9. When we click on the more gallery he is only seeing a very limited number of features. When we use command finder the features are available but they are hidden. I have not run into this with any other users. Is there a way to 'unhide' all the features so they...
Alright placing the balloons and then updating the parts list did not work, I had actually tried that already because that is how I remembered it working in the past.
Buried in that video that PhoeNX posted was instructions for changing an environment variable that would activate that...
Thanks John and Cowski. I ended up placing the parts list on a separate sheet and changed the auto balloons to call out 'part name'. Then I autoballooned it and removed the balloons I didn't need.
What would be nice (maybe this exists and I just don't know it) would be functionality that allows...
Didn't mean to sound disingenuous, and I am not asking for a different dialog, or reverting back to anything prior to NX9 as far as the layout of the dialog boxes. I am simply requesting that the hot keys, specifically '0-6' work the way they used to in the existing framework. By saying new...
Does anyone know if any progress has been made on this? The precision '0-6' was a big loss as was the use of the arrow keys. The box that comes up for editing annotated text, tolerance, etc looks nice and is easy to understand, but it takes mouse clicks to get to it. If that box was...
Thanks Jack. Save as really isn't an option as I will have multiple users interacting with these assemblies and I need access to what they are doing to them reflected in the file I am using. I believe scenes is the answer. I'll see if I can find some helpful tutorials on how to use scenes, and...
