    Corrupt STL Export - NX Journaling

    I'm not sure, this is the code for my STL_save function: markId10 = theSession.SetUndoMark(NXOpen.Session.MarkVisibility.Visible, "STL Export") # STL set up: sTLCreator1 = theSession.DexManager.CreateStlCreator() sTLCreator1.AutoNormalGen = True...

    Corrupt STL Export - NX Journaling

    Hello, I have a complex part which resembles a kayak (attached), I have a python journalling script which changes some dimensions and suppresses/unsuppresses some features, then exports an STL of the part + JSON file with the parameters used. When I manually export an STL it has no errors, but...

    Exporting Volume using Python Journalling Script

    Hello, I have currently created a part, then this part is edited by a journal. This changes the volume of the solid bodies in the part. I have created a journal that displays the information window with the mass data (using the measure body function of NX), however, I am wondering how to...

    Exporting Part Volume Data

    Hello, I have a part and I am creating a journal to edit it. As part of this process, I want to read the volume of each iteration and have this exported automatically for use in further calculations. Is there a function in NX 12.0 where I can export data like this? Thanks

    Coincident curves across sketches

    Hello, Currently, I am trying to surface a shape which consists of two guiding curves forming upper and lower boundaries (coincident at one end) - on the same plane (say XY) - and a cross-section at a point along the curves, on the XZ plane. My issue is that I cannot get the two curves to be...

    NX 12 Kayak Modeling

    Hello, I see you have realized my exact problem! I have no access to the system the part came from, I believe it was made in another software package - however, the original designer is being very unhelpful. Yes, my main goal is to edit the geometry to add a level of customization to the part...

    NX 12 Kayak Modeling

    Hello, This is my first post here so apologize for any mistakes. I am currently trying to recreate the model of a kayak (attached) as I am looking into journaling for customisation - therefore require a .part/similar rather than the .stp format I currently have it in. However, I am struggling...
