    Creating an NX assembly directly from TC Visualization Pro, visible/selected items only

    I'll preface this by saying that I do not have much familiarity with Teamcenter Visualization Professional and only basic use of NX, and there's not much support available to me on my company's side, so I turn to you for some guidance. I am using NX 2007 and TC Viz Pro 12.2. I am working with...

    Advice on a strategy to get expression data into and out of a spreadsheet

    NX version 1973, integrated with TC. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'm pretty new to NX so there may be some fundamental misunderstandings about how things work here, but I hope this is clear enough: Part setup: -- DatumCSYS at part absolute origin, that stays...

    Single operation/feature that will extract the perimeter curve from a Bounded Plane?

    Hi, I have a workflow that involves the following situation: I create a Shadow Curve from a wave-linked point in space, using various bodies as masks, and projected onto a plane Since these bodies have some gaps and holes, the Shadow Curve contains some inner loops as well as the main...

    Issue with Shadow Curve: one of several bodies is completely ignored by Shadow Curve

    Hi, I successfully used Shadow Curve in about 10 different instances using a collection of Bodies as the mask. However, I have now found that there is one particular body in this collection that, if included in the Mask Geometry selection, will result in no output from Shadow Curve (to be...

    Best approach for (file > points > closed curve) to make two curves, then (curves > ruled > body)?

    Hi! I'm pretty inexperienced with NX so I wanted to hear your thoughts on the best way to approach this task. See image here. I want to generate a volume that connects two closed curves, let's call these curves A and B. I think I will probably be using Ruled to create this volume. The...

    How to create a solid that represents the shadow of an object projected by a point light source?

    I'm not really sure how to approach this. My goal is to end up with a solid volume that matches an object's shadow, given an object and a location in space that represents a point light source. Imagine a complex object, like a pineapple. Define a point above and to the side of the pineapple...

    Automated way of exporting coordinates (X,Y,Z,R,P,Y) of certain components in an assembly

    Hi all, Let me preface this by saying that I have almost no NX knowledge, so please don't be surprised if I'm asking for something obvious, or I don't even know basic NX terminology. My goal is to have a script within NX that, when run, will go through an assembly, and export the (x,y,z) and...
