    Share data on model file

    A way to solve your problem --- just copy the mf1 and mf2 files to your workstation on which you can continue your work. But I suspect it's not your problem, is it? Please express your requirements in details. If your laptop and workstation are interconnected, I recommend you may try the Library...

    Slicing a solid

    As Thomas said, just use "solid>add" to add the two split volumes into one that you slice before.

    Slicing a solid

    With which Pre-processing tools to slice or partition a solid (Patran, Femap, I-deas, Hypermesh or others)?

    Starting with a *.mf1 and *mf2 file

    read mf1 file first, then click the "Manage Bins" icon (on the mid-right) to get out your part model (display) if it is not on workbench.

    How to run NX Nastran 3.0 interactively in I-DEAS 11?

    Hi, I try to run NX Nastran 3.0 in I-deas 11m2 in an interactive mode (under I-deas' NX Nastran task). But when I have set the solve option for NX Nastran executive command and TextEdit command and then solve a model, it always shows on the solve monitor panel that: ------------------------...

    RAM or Video Card Issue?

    If it shows only when you display your big models, I suppose it is probably your graphic card memory that counts. On the other hand, it could be a RAM problem. If so, I think it is likely to help when you increase your RAM to 2G(maximum for Windows system on a 32 bit to handle properly). But...

    Mem_Bad_pointer

    Do you get the error message immediately after you quit I-deas? Are you using Windows XP sp2? I suppose there is a problem with that case in sp2 and if you change to sp1, it's probably ok! Anyway, just ignore the message and it has little impact on the operation, does it?

    Can I change "Add" volume into "Join"?

    Thanks again feadude! In fact, I have tried the way you said before. But I don't know why every time I choose the surfaces related to a volume for extract, only ONE surface of the volume, as a result, for me to extract. Or is it a bug of such function on my own PC? Well, thank you for your reply!

    Can I change "Add" volume into "Join"?

    Thank you feadude for your reply! I have tried, but when I use Extract in Master Modeler task, I cannot select "Volume" (with Filter option, I could only find surface, section, edge, etc.). I know if I select closed surfaces, they could form a volume automatically. However, I suspect it is...

    Can I change "Add" volume into "Join"?

    I know if the CAD model is modeled with Master Modeler in I-deas, I can use "History Access" to modify the "Feature Parameters" as change "Add" into "Join" or anything else. However, if I imported a model from UG, I cannot access the history of the CAD model since it showes an Orphan when I use...

    meshing together seperate parts with different material types

    Yes, as Liro said, you could use "Partition" to separate a single volume on conditon that the two parts are joined together. That could guarantee the continuity of meshes on the interface of two parts which could also be meshed with two different materials. Or if you cannot join the two parts...
