    Vertical Text in Draft

    Hi everyone. I tried searching a bit around, but without any luck so far. I want to add text to one of my drafts that is orientated vertically, in other words that the text is rotated 90 degrees from standard orientation. I've tried this with Text Box but I am unable to figure out how to do...

    Creating engraved text 'wrapped' around a cylinder

    Thank you so much, John. This was exactly what I was looking for. I'll surely save some time using this method in the future!

    Creating engraved text 'wrapped' around a cylinder

    Just another thought I had, I can extrude each letter individually subtracting it from the cylindrical body and using an offset surface at the desired depth to use as stop parameter 'Until next'. This will still be tedious, but probably faster than the way I have been doing it earlier. Anyway...

    Creating engraved text 'wrapped' around a cylinder

    Hi everyone, Hope you all had a great easter holiday for those of you who celebrate that. So like the subject specifies I'm interested in how you guys would go about this. Usually when engraving something I just create the text planar to the surface and extrude the text with 'subtract' away...

    Changing the default user of Solid Edge

    I also think, it's connected to windows login credentials. But I tried changing the windows username, but it still recognizes the file to be opened by the old username. Even if 'Owner' property is changed in registry, Author of part is changed in file properties aswell as in the template and the...

    Changing the default user of Solid Edge

    Thank you, Scott. This seemed fixed exactly what I asked for! However, in our drafting template we've used the attribute "Last Author". And this metadata still seems to be the old name. Also when I go into file properties the metadata says that the file is currently opened by the old name. Is...

    Changing the default user of Solid Edge

    Ok, thanks Scott. I'll try that!

    Changing the default user of Solid Edge

    Hi everyone, Sorry if there is an easy and obvious solution to this, I can't seem to find it however. Is there an easy way to change the default user of Solid Edge that pops up in the startup screen? Other than doing a complete reinstall of Solid Edge on the computer. The name I want to...

    FEM-analysis using NX NASTRAN - Can't access results after solving .sim [NX 7.0]

    Yes it does, thank you. Apparently though that only applied to NX6, so I think it must be something else. I read the .f06 file that the solve produced and this is what it says: *** USER FATAL MESSAGE 3060 (PREFACE) SUBROUTINE MODEL - OPTION NAST NOT IN APPROVED LIST. SYSTEM DATE...

    FEM-analysis using NX NASTRAN - Can't access results after solving .sim [NX 7.0]

    http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=256432 After finding this thread, I think this may be the problem. I have to update my NX Nastran software as is experienced the famous April 1st, 2009 "Date Check" error. But the link provided in that thread is expired. Can anyone provide where I...

    FEM-analysis using NX NASTRAN - Can't access results after solving .sim [NX 7.0]

    Hello everyone, So I am trying to perform a simple FEM analysis of a very simple disc using NX NASTRAN in the advanced simulation environment. I make a tetrahedal mesh, assign material, add a constrain for a fixed area and add a load. But when I solve the simulation, everything seems to be in...

    Error message in basic Flow Simulation [CFD analysis] NX7

    I'm just bumping this thread for an additional question. I've played a bit with simulations of fluids in different geometries and conditions, but in a similar setup, is it possible to simulate the dynamic pressure? I can get the static pressure, is there another way around to just taking fluid...

    Error message in basic Flow Simulation [CFD analysis] NX7

    Thank you very much Blas, both for figuring it out and some great illustrations. I was thinking it had to be something along these lines. I was working with a more complicated model, got the error. Tried to simplify it to just a pipe, and got the same thing! Once again thank you very much. I...

    Error message in basic Flow Simulation [CFD analysis] NX7

    Hey everyone, So I'm trying to learn to do some basic CFD analysis using NX 7.0, specifically on internal flow in a test model of a 90 degree angled pipe. My process is as follows: [ol 1] I open my part, pipe_test.prt Open advanced simulation environment Right click part in Simulation...
