    Creating a wireframe rendering of a surface

    Hi, Thanks - that works great for the sphere, but for some reason not for the actual shape I'm trying to render. This is a picture of the object with display set to Shaded: https://www.dropbox.com/s/g45n4wb9ce6suq3/Fairing-solid.png And this is wireframe, with U and V set to 50...

    Creating a wireframe rendering of a surface

    Hi, I want to create a wireframe rendering of an assembly containing several objects with compound-curve surfaces. What I'm after is something which looks like this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/38/Sphere-wireframe.png At the moment if I choose any of the wireframe...

    Create spline doesn't create curve on current sketch plane...

    Sure, I realise that! Does NX treat the coordinates in the data file as global 3D coordinates? If so how can I accomplish what I want - generating a curve on an arbitrary plane and location using data generated by Excel? All I can think of is to do the transformation to the data before importing...

    Create spline doesn't create curve on current sketch plane...

    Hi, I'm trying to create a curve from a set of 3D data points generated in Excel. I've done this successfully by creating a sketch then doing Insert->Curve->Spline->Through Points, but the resulting spline isn't on the same plane as the sketch. In fact splines created this way seem to always...

    Solving problem parametrically in ANSYS workbench

    Hi, I'm working on an assignment that requires I evaluate maximum stress in a plate under uni-axial tension. The plate has a number of holes in it. While the plate outer dimensions are constant, the plate thickness and hole locations change - in total there are 27 configurations of plate...
