Hello, our company will be moving from Nx10 to Nx12. I have many files which are controlled parametrically by changing the values in: Tools-> Expressions -> Reference Part Attribute. I have opened one of my files in Nx12, but I cannot find a "Reference Part Attribute (RPA for short)." Only...
Hello, I am thinking in earlier versions of NX it was possible to add a view in drafting from a part or assembly which is not the current part. Insert-View-From Part it would've been. In this version I tried to use Insert-View-Base, but I can't select from the part that I want.
Hello, I have advanced with full menus selected for roles, but for some reason I don't have the normal menu for Assemblies/Components/Add Existing for mating components in an assembly. The menu is much shorter, it only shows context control, component position, replace reference set, wave, and...
Hello, I created templates in Nx 8.5. The dimensions are controlled by inputting different values in attributes. They work normally in Nx 8.5, but now that we are using Nx 10, there are many times where the dimensions are becoming disassociated after the changes are applied in attributes. Is...
Hello,
I am trying to do a "Move Object" command to rotate this object in Nx10. It will not allow me to select the object which I want to. Am I missing something? I've done this a million times in previous versions. I have no selection filter selected and within work part only selected. Please...
Hello,
Does anyone know how to adjust the spacing between the drafting view and the dimension line in Nx10? In past versions this was done using Preferences->Annotation->Line/Arrow: and adjusting the H and J values. I cannot figure out where to do this in version 10.
Thanks in Advance
Hello,
Within the .prt which I am currently working on, I do not want view borders in drafting. I have gone to Menu->Preferences->Names/Borders: I have unchecked the box labeled "Show Model View Borders" When I bring in a base view, it still has the border. Can you please help me with this...
Hello,
I would like to be able to update expressions while in the drafting application instead of having to move to modeling. I changed the customer default in Nx8.5 to be able to do so, but I can't seem to remember how I did it. Could someone please let me know how this is to be done in version...
Hello,
I have some templates which I created in Nx7.5. I used some things like <X.4@C> and <W@$H_PART_NAME> etc. These still function fine when opened with Nx8.5, however when I try to create a new <W@$H_PART_NAME> and such in Nx8.5 it does not seem to be allowing it. I have read earlier posts...
Hi,
I'm working with Nx8.5. While in Drafting I go to: Preferences/Annotation, I select tolerance and then chose "Upper Right" from the drop-down of "Alignment Position". Now I create a dimension with a +/- tolerance and the tolerance is still defaulting to being directly to the right of the...
Hello,
Is there anyone who can tell me which customer default I need to change in Nx8.5 so that I can begin a new sketch, but constrain to an existing sketch? For a simple example: I have a square plate with a slot in it as my first sketch. I extrude a .5" thick solid from the sketch. I wish to...
Hello,
I have used Nx in its earlier versions and I was able to create a new sketch and constrain off of existing sketches. Is there a customer default which I need to activate in order to be able to constrain sketches to each other?
Thanks in advance
Hello,
(Currently using Nx 8.5)
I have been able to create a custom color in Preferences > Background, but cannot seem to access that color anywhere else, for example: Insert > Annotation > Area Fill > Color. I am trying to create an image to export as a simple jpeg and the color grey which I...
