    Create Drafting Component for View of Master Model Part

    To John, If an additional Drawing Component is added, will the effect the object count on a parts list? To Cubalibre00, Good tip on the option. I had not considered the exploded view. I do wonder if you could still get your exploded view through an arrangement. Not the most ideal approach...

    Examine Geometry

    Thank you for the timely response. Though I have to say, it's disappointing. I guess I don’t really understand the purpose of the command now. Let’s say you identify 50 faces that are tiny or misaligned among 10,000. Then what? What do you do with this information? John B. Conger Tool...

    Examine Geometry

    Hello all, When using Examine Geometry in NX6, I usually check for Tiny and Misaligned objects. I know, after processing, you can check the boxes to Highlight Results. However, what I would like to do is move the highlighted results to another layer so I can quickly reference/select which...

    NX Error: "Part is not a valid version of component part"

    Create Drafting Component for View of Master Model Part

    Thank you John. That was clear to the understanding. Now that you have explained it, I am having a hard time thinking of a situation where you would not want this option checked. Best Regards, John B. Conger Tool Design Automotive Interiors Advanced Engineering Solutions Inc...

    I was scanning through some of the Customer Defaults in NX6, and came across one I didn't understand. Customer Defaults -> Drafting -> Extras -> Drawing Under this tab I have 1 option called Drawing Work Flow. The text after the check box reads "Create Drafting Component for View of Master...

    UGNX4 - Number Pad Causes Crash

    The only difference between the build of each workstation is the keyboard and mouse being used. You think it could be a brand issue? John B. Conger Tool Design Automotive Interiors Advanced Engineering Solutions Inc. http://www.advancedinternational.com/

    UGNX4 - Number Pad Causes Crash

    looslib, I believe we are running the latest and gratest for NX4 (Win 7 64bit, NX4.0.4.2 MP9). We did do testing for the NX4 on Windows 7, and all checked out on the first 2 workstations we upgraded. After that, it was hit or miss for having this issue. JohnRBaker, The number pad is being...

    UGNX4 - Number Pad Causes Crash

    Hello all. All of the Workstations my company have been upgraded to Windows 7. All of the workstations have NX4 and NX6 loaded on them. Almost all of my co-workers are still using NX4. Half of them have a problem where every time they use the keyboard number pad, it causes NX4 to crash...

    Mouse Over of Displayed components causes slow selection in NX4

    Nevermind. This turned out to be a driver issue with the graphics card. Apparently Windows 7 did not have the best driver to support NX4. After downloading the latest driver from Nvidia, the problem is now fixed. John B. Conger Tool Design Automotive Interiors Advanced Engineering Solutions...

    Mouse Over of Displayed components causes slow selection in NX4

    Hello. Slightly embarassed to ask because I have fixed this problem many other times. For some reason, this time, the solution is not presenting itself. Question: What setting in NX4 would cause assembly components, when moused over, to highlight every feature of the component (one feature...
