Good Morning to All,
I have been facing a weird issue since the start of the day today. The Automatic 3D Centerline on the Projected view is coming out to be way long as shown in the below images. I checked my customer default settings and I do not find any issues there. I have attached images...
Hello Everyone,
I have an assembly on which I run a custom NXOpen application. At the end, I am doing a programmatic Save All. NX is prompting me to save certain read-only files which I am not even touching inside my program. On checking the Part Modification History Information -> Part ->...
Hello Everyone,
Hope all of you had a nice long weekend!
I have something cropping up today and I have been trying to find a solution since morning. In NX 12, a new window opens as a tabbed page (similar to chrome). How can I close any opened new windows using NXOpen? I also need a way to...
Hello Everyone,
I am using .AskMinimumDist method to return 2 points on 2 different bodies, I am then using these 2 points to calculate a vector and use the vector in the .TraceARay method to return the faces that are hit. I am doing all this to reduce runtime in computing mating faces between...
Hello Everyone,
I have been struggling with a customer requirement lately. Has anyone over here worked with Patterns in Drawing? The customer wants me to add the Title Block as a Pattern. If I am trying to manually add the customer Pattern Part File using File--> Import, Groups are getting...

Hello Everyone,
I wish all of you a Happy New Year 2018.
One of my applications uses Run_Managed.exe to execute a list of NXOpen batch applications. Recently I migrated to NX 11 for one of my customers and I have been facing an issue with the run_managed.exe application.
I am getting the...
Hello Everyone,
Is there a way to get all the faces in an assembly which are having a given color (for example, all the blue faces) without having to loop through the different bodies and faces (maybe by using NX rules)? I am looking for a run-time efficient solution.
Thank you,
Amitabh
Hello Everyone,
I have been struggling with this the entire day. Is there any NXOpen API that provides if an edge is partially visible in 2D Drawing? I have been looking at 2 API's AskVdeData and UFSo.AskVisibilityOpt but none of them tells me if an edge is partially visible. There is no View...
Hi Friends,
I have a piece of code which is working perfectly fine in NX9 but the same piece of code is throwing a problem on NX11 :(
The code takes as input a view in which it performs view dependent edit on certain edges (within a given face) to make it visible as dashed line in the drawing...
Hello Friends,
I have some questions related to CAA and I need some help
1. Does CATIA CAA gives a functionality to custom name Edges and Faces of any given solid body so that we can later refer it using .NET Edge.Name and Face.Name property? I would like to refer these edges as Edge1, Edge2...
Hello Friends,
I am wondering which NX API will let me define a Tabular Note Header. I need to propagate the table along with the header if it reaches beyond a certain margin value. I am able to propagate the tabular note rows to the left using NX Open but I have to add the header row using...
Hello Friends,
This group has never disappointed me when I have been looking for some answers to my NX automation. Here I come with another question. I have different assemblies in which the same part is instantiated (as another component assembly). Is there any direct NX API that I can use to...
Hello Friends,
I have a custom symbol with pre-defined text attributes that the user can fill after placing the symbol. However, when I am placing it on the drawing sheet, I do not see the section to edit attributes.
Let me know if there is some setting that I need to take care of before...
Hello Everyone,
I have created a Local Co-ordinate System (LCS) in the Work part / Displayed part, on one of the Hole Center points. I need to get all the other hole center points (X,Y,Z) data with respect to this newly created Co-ordinate System.
Please refer to the image below.
How can I...
Hello Everyone,
Is there a way that I can define a custom sbf file and attach different symbols to that file ? I need to use a symbol that I have created at my end, in a text field in 2D. We can only only use (user defined symbols) for such scenarios.
A user defined symbol can be simply...
Hello Everyone,
Can someone let me know if there is a way to create custom NX Drafting Control text characters. I have a customer defined control character text <%1M2> which is throwing an error when I try to apply it manually.
Thanks,

Hello Everyone,
I wanted to know if there is a way to identify boundary edges and curves in a drawing view using NXOpen (NX9). I am struggling to identify the outline of the drawing.
Any help in this regard will be deeply appreciated.
Thank You,

Hello Everyone,
I have some applications which require identification of mating faces between 2 components in an assembly. There are no assembly constraints used for the assembly. These 2 components are simple touching. I wanted to know if someone in the group is aware of some NX API that can...
Is it possible to export NX9 model information to a spreadsheet (or xml file)? We need info relating to Cylindrical Faces and Planar Faces (i.e. Axis vector / Normal vector Direction Cosines, Hole Center Coordinate value, Feature Type (Cyl or Planar Face)). What API should I use? Also need to...
