    NX Journal to change drafting entity colours

    Have adapted the code above to change the detail view borders. Many thanks again Cowski! Could you share how the similar journal worked with section line labels. I'm just stuck on combining this with my main journal that changes the other drafting objects. I had a go at making sure there were no...

    NX Journal for STEP export

    Hi, I'm trying to produce a journal that reads an NX attribute (SAP_CC_NAME) and then uses it as a filename for a STEP file export. So far I've found and combined (probably not in the most efficient way - I'm new to this!) two journals, one for automated STEP export and another I've adapted to...
