    STP Export in NX1899 auto versioning

    Hi, In NX1899, I've realised that if you export a STEP file (.STP) where there previously was one, automatic naming versions the file up adding a suffix of "_n". Thus effectively avoiding overwriting the previous version. Prior to Continuous Release, there was a warning dialog where you...

    Using NX log files als aid for billing

    Hi, I normally bill clients on a time and materials basis. As I work alone, I manually fill a timesheet for each project and this requires the discipline to do it as regularly as possible, in order to not forget what I was doing on each time slot. In order to be more accurate (and relaxed :-)...

    Delivery of native NX files to a client

    Hi I need to deliver my native NX9 files to a client. I mean a collection of files so that someone else can open an assembly part file and can work further on my assembly with all the feature data. Now, I don't use Teamcenter and we are talking about 280 components saved in different folders...

    Standard Dialog Windows Sizes

    Hi, Almost no standard dialog window shows up in a usable size for me. For example, see the attached screenshot for an example of how my Customer Defaults windows is rendered per default. I have to ALWAYS drag boundaries and column widths if I want to work comfortably... Not nice... These...

I'd like to change remove the username prefix to leave only "filename.pdf" I can't for the life of me find where. Strangely, it is not in Customer Defaults > Gateway >...

    NX 8.5 Print to PDF

    Dear all, Does anyone know if there is some software requirement for the "Print to PDF" functionality? Is Acrobat a requirement and does it need to be installed PRIOR to NX? I thought that NX came with a PDF printer module. The problem I have is that in my knew NX8.5 installation I don't see...

    RSS Feed for patch releases

    Hi, Is there a way that I'd be notified when new patch releases are available for NX releases? Like a mailing list or RSS feed that I can subscribe to. It would be nice to have instead of having to periodically check out the FTP site (which I certainly not do frequently enough...) Thanks &...

    NX 8.0 Mechanical Fasteners Library

    Hi all, I am looking into the mechanical fasteners library that comes bundled with the software... What do you think would be the best step to expand it? Learning about part families and how they are made and build the components ad-hoc? Or does anyone know about part families out there in the...
