I have no idea how to open a ticket or make an official request to have something added to NX, so if someone else does and you like this idea, please add one. lol
Numerous times now I have wished I could have the ability to add color to the files in the part navigator tree.
Currently, I am...
When I am trying to create a very simple Family part with only two children, the spreadsheet will start giving me errors.... (after I click on "Create Family Parts".
Error....
"Microsoft Excel ia waiting for another application to complete an OLE action."
It gives me this error over and over...
When I hit CTRL+1 (Customize) and then go to the Tabs/Bars tab. It lists all the toolbars.
Some of these have (Custom) after them.
My belief was that these are toolbars created right there in that computer. These are not reading from our Startup menu.
However, I was looking for what toolbar...
I have an excel file that has a bunch of points. Each point has an ID and a location.
I have followed some instructions to turn the file into a txt file to import to NX, but it only creates points in that location. No ID's.
I know I can export to a csv file and all of the attributes will be...
When we flattening a surface, it allows you to select objects to transfer.
When we transfer a point that has an attribute attached to it, the new point will have that same attribute. However, if you select a line that has an attribute, the new line is a spline and has no attributes.
Is...
Someone made us a journal to add text for weldspots. We didnt realize it at first that they didnt change the settings for the text but just added formatting to the text. So "296X698" looks like "<F4>296X698<F>" when you double click it. Which messes up a program we use to search for spot...
I have been trying to figure out a way to create an adaptive schedule for someone who runs a Cornnhole league. The site they use to use to make it was merged with another they dont like. So he was hoping to have it on an excel spreadsheet.
The amount of teams can vary from year to year.

Is it possible to add a component to an assembly as a "read only" file?
We have some files that are ready to be released but the leader likes to release them at the same time. So while we are waiting for them to be released, it would be great if we could add them to our assembly to get a jump...
To be clear, if this can be done by making VB code that will create a function to do the job, it would be fine. My original file has a lot of formulas and no coding but I will take what I can get here.
The attached excel file is version 2007 (I think).
I need a formula that will look at a...
On the attached excel file (in the New Question tab) Is a list of spot numbers under the "!NAME!" header. To the right of those are three columns with the location of the weld spots in the XY and Z directions.
Column A has formulas that take the locations down to whole numbers and removes the...
Currently we can open different parts in different windows. I am not expert on programming so I admit I have no idea, but it logically seems we are one step away from being able to have both Drafting and Modeling of the same file open in two different windows within the same NX session.
At...
Sometimes I need to know where a command is in the menu drop downs and not just start it up automatically. I used to do a search for the button and could see the path to it. Now they changed the search and I cant figure out how to find where a button is in the menus.
For example, I want to know...
I have custom ribbons but they only have custom DLL or Macro or VB files being executed.
I would like to make a custom ribbon that the TBR file it loads will have both custom VB files as well as a few standard operations like "Basic Curves" or "Trim Curves".
The reason is we have a specific...
I have a sheet with maybe up to 30 columns and can be up to a couple thousand rows.
I need to find the column with the header SPOT#, look up a specific number (ie... 23x456) in that column, then return the information in the same row in column with the header X_POS
What causes me the problem...
I can do a find to give me the location of an underscore. However some of the cells it turns out will have an underscore previous the one I am looking for.
How can you do a find, that looks for an underscore followed by a number, but you never know what number it will be?
Example of the...
I cant seem to figure out which formulas to put together and get them to work for this.
In the attached files there is a range of words. (Just threw these words together for the sample)
In the yellow cell, I want to add a formula that will look for the word in A1 in A5:A14.
it might now...
I have figured out how to import a team center file into another team center file. Here is where I really suck in VB code. User selection. lol
Would this be terribly difficult to set up two different ways?
1) To allow user to select an existing point where to place it.
2) To allow user to...
Using the Flattening and Forming tool, there is a section called "Transformation Objects". Any objects selected will move with the flat pattern.
If points that are selected have an "ID" attribute, the new points will have that same attribute. The attribute carries over.
However, when I give a...
When flattening faces we first need to create linked exterior faces. Then we flatten those faces. However, we often run into something we have not been able to do and I was hoping maybe there is a way we just dont know.
Sometimes we would like to flatten two faces together, but keep them both...
We have files called Sealer Beads that are basically just solid tubes in them. They can be any length or have different bends in different directions to follow the contours of the body parts of a vehicle.
Usually these have centerlines in them we can turn on. Sometimes they dont. Is there an...
