    The best way to create double start custom threads on NX?

    Hi, Am struggling with deciding the best way to create double start custom threads on NX? More specifically, are any additional features in NX10 to help the cause?

    Expressions missing from Note menu

    Template file of part family lost - only part family members available

    Hi, I have a set of previously generated part family members in UG NX 5.0.3.2 but the template part was deleted by accident.
