    Error messege "Tag was passed..."

    Yeah, I would really like to hear what they have to say about this. Running 8 and have been plagued with the same error since the previous version.

    Attempt to save bad pointer. Save aborted

    The saga continues. Now, instead of getting the bad pointer error when trying to save an assembly, I get (on a different assembly) an "invalid tag" error when trying to open up an assembly. I load the files from TC to NX then try to open the assembly but no go. This particular assembly...

    error 734009

    Not for every assembly, just this one.

    Anyone know what this means? It keeps coming up when loading an assembly. -J

    PMI section view, with background view, to drafting sheet

    I am working with a background view. I created a PMI section view and tried to insert it onto an NX drafting sheet. The section view is there..... but so is the whole background view..... It doesn't just inherit the PMI section view. Is there some trick to just showing the section view (it is a...

    Attempt to save bad pointer. Save aborted

    John- Yeah, I think I'm in the same situation as Ben with security clearances and all that. I am not being critical of GTAC or support at all, just trying to get this all done by our deadline. I have a work-around for now. Lightweight sections don't get this error. I can use those for PMI...

    Attempt to save bad pointer. Save aborted

    Part cleanup didn't help. Can't send files to GTAC because of ITAR. I think I've narrowed the problem down to certain types of PMI (regular, not lightweight) section views. I did a file-save as on the original. I then deleted the PMI views one at a time and did a file save as on them each time...

    Attempt to save bad pointer. Save aborted

    Ok, understood. I will bring it up to those who can do something about it. How does one run a Part cleanup? We are using 7.5. I don't know what maintenance release we have. Thanks for your help!

    Attempt to save bad pointer. Save aborted

    I can't personally do this but may be able to mention it to someone who might be able to though the files are proprietary/strictly secure and can't be shared. In the past, we've been told that the "fix" is to recreate each model from scratch. That is no longer acceptable. I just don't want this...

    Attempt to save bad pointer. Save aborted

    thread561-126540 We have been getting this too. I saw that the original post about this was in 2005.. 7 years later and this is still happening? I try to save a part and get this error. I get the same error when trying to save the assembly that this part belongs to (the error comes up on 3...

    Bolt Circle in PMI?

    What is the recommended way to add the center lines in PMI to a Bolt hole circle?

    detailed thread problems

    I've gotten it to work for the most part. I created a PMI section view of the the threads but I'm not sure how to dimension the thread's minor diameter. I mean, I can do a diameter dimension but it shows up perpendicular to the plane that I want to see it on. I also need to dimension to the...

    detailed thread problems

    Can they be created using a non-standard minor diameter? I tried it and the results were truly bizarre. Can one add an edge blend (or would a face blend be better?) to the base of a "tooth" or for that matter, can one add a chamfer to the top of the tooth? I'm doing an external thread and it...
