I'm not seeing how I can set the Output Geometry in the newer Measure tool that would allow me to 'create' an Extreme point. This was possible in NX 12 using the standalone Extreme Point Measurement tool, but that's now pulled into the Measure tool. Anyone know about this?

It looks like old Edit Text (or Edit Annotation?) functionality is gone, where you could copy the view label attributes and then past them in a note to cross-reference back to that view. This method was nice of course because it maintain associativity, i.e. if the view label changes, so would...
I've used a Knowledge Fusion script before with Suppression by Expression and made the expression a conditional statement to where an Informational window would pop up letting the user know why the component feature went into a Suppressed state.
For example:
A Bellow (standard part) has a min...
Wondering if anyone knows syntax that can be used in an expression that pulls up a message window when that expression meets a specific condition? Knowledge Fusion syntax I believe.
One example I've used this syntax for was with a conditional statement for a standard parts, Below which is to be...
Is there a way to turn off the default setting that is to list Category Names, for the same layer, Alphabetically?
Seems completely unnecessary.

How can I legitimize the drop-dimension shown in the attached?
From what I've read, Tangent plane is not used for this, I guess.

I'm joining a new team/project at work and we are working with a complex assembly, with many component levels, all of which are using the same Control file for interpart WAVE linking - in a bottom-up manner.
I'd like to change the bottom-up structure to a top-down structure where the control...
Hi,
Can anyone explain what the differences are between Implicit and Explicit Override?
I know what Position Override is but one thing I'm just noticing is the Open Arrow vs. the Green arrow under the Position column in the Assembly Navigator.
If I only use Position Override on a single...
Hi,
I'm having issues WAVE linking Curve segments from a top-down, seed file sketch.
It seems if the seed file sketch curves are Referenced, I can no longer WAVE them as a Curve segment (this behavior seems new).
WAVE linking the whole Sketch still works but not what I'm trying to do.
I'm...
Well,
Just my luck, I'm just starting to develop training content right when we transferred from NX 10 to NX 11 and, of course, I'm having some issues (4 hours on NX 11).
Besides the usual lack of efficiently for a week or so, that comes with new roll-outs, it seems a strong use-case is...
Hi,
The last company I worked at ran Imprecise BoM's by default and the current company I'm at defaults to Precise?
What does that means exactly?
I understand the meaning of Precise/Imprecise but what are the settings that dictate the, lets say Precise "default" standard?
I looked through...
Hi,
I'm trying to put together a list of ASME Y14... standards that would be good to have on site.
I know there's a lot of them but there's only certain ones that are really applicable, since some of the other ones override company practices.
- ASME Y14.1 - Engineering Drawing Practices
- ASME...
Hi,
In a recent design review, I was told I can't use Runout for a part that doesn't rotate in the assembly.
I applied Runout on the mounting flange, and the coaxial-alignment shaft opposite the flange, of an Axle Pin and referenced the datum axis of the primary shaft.
This part is fixed in...
Hi,
Couple of quick question about the Open by Proximity command:
-What's selected when using Open by Proximity, components inside and crossing the Bounding Box and, does the same rule apply with True Shape?
-Is the Open by Proximity, Bounding Box selections effected when using Multi-Select...
Hi,
Simple question; just wondering if there's a command, or display, that tells you what layer a component is on, after it's brought into an assembly using the "Original" layer option?
Usually I open Layer Settings, start selecting components then watch the layers as they highlight, but I'm...
Hi,
The current company I'm working at is using the property, Non-Geometric as a form of hiding parent components that have been Wave Linked.
I'm used to only seeing Non-Geometric used for things like adhesives and other ways to hide the parent of Wave Linked bodies.
Q: Is there any reason to...

There's a mismatch between the weight taken via Measure Bodies and the value shown in the Weight column of the Assembly Navigator.
I should mention; not all the components in the Assembly Navigator show a value in the Weight column, which would explain why the Weight column for the top level...
Hi,
At the company I work for, PDF's are now auto-generated into TC with color, during the release process.
This is to support color coded schematics and wires diagrams however, non-color coded drawings are still required to be black-on-white.
No program was created to support switching from...
