    I have a journal that does a few CAM actions (regerating tool paths) and then outputs a CLSF file. I need the user to be able view the operations manager and the model before presenting the user with a windows menu asking whether or not to output the CLSF file. Does anyone know the correct...

    NXOpen Batch Mode -> Exporting Jpegs

    Sorry for the double post, I want to clarify that I do know how to start a modeling session. I just need to know the piece about the specific (or minimum) pixel size of the window.

    NXOpen Batch Mode -> Exporting Jpegs

    I have an NXOpen applciation that I've written/compiled with VS 2008 for NX 7.5 that opens a part file, makes geometric changes, and then exports jpegs of the part. The jpegs to be exported are of variable sizes (width/height) based on the geometries of the particular part. My issue is that...

    Get All Feature Groups in Part NX 7.5 Visual Basic

    I do realize that this can be achieved by getting the collection of features, looping through the collection of features, and storing only features of type feature group, but I'm looking for a more efficient way of doing this if possible because many of my files have 1000+ features in them...

    Get All Feature Groups in Part NX 7.5 Visual Basic

    So I'm attempting to grab the Collection of Feature Groups or Sets Of Features in the current Part or even current Session. I can't seem to be able to do this in the same way that you get the collection of features, datums, points, etc in a given part. I haven't managed to find a wrapper...

    NX 7.5 Journal -> Need to let user pick location of point on curve/edge with cursor

    So, I'm writing journals in NX 7.5 and ran into a snag currently. I want the journal to create some geometries, then let the user select a point on a line (and thus the U Parameter of the point on the line) by the location of his cursor. Is there anyways for me to do this?

    NX Journal Jpg Exports / Graphics Window Question

    Okay, so I found a jerry-rigged way of finding the graphics window's pixel size: Option Strict Off Imports System Imports System.IO Imports System.Text Imports System.Windows.Forms Imports NXOpen Imports NXOpen.UF Imports NXOpenUI Imports NXOpen.Assemblies Imports System.Xml Module NXJournal...

    NX Journal Jpg Exports / Graphics Window Question

    dhusk09, I appreciate your quick feedback. However, I am able to export the entire graphics window without any issues. My main issue still remains to be specifying a rectangular box within the graphics window that will be exported. Additionally, I still have no way of identifying the window...

    NX Journal Jpg Exports / Graphics Window Question

    Over the last few days I've been looking into how to export framed images of the graphics windows to jpeg files through NX journaling in NX 7.5. The 'CreateFramedImage' method allows for the export of a rectangular window of the graphics window. Additionally, the function allows for you to...

    Creating Custom Input Menus - Journaling NX 7.5

    So I've been trying to create a custom menu that during the execution of one of my scripts, will pop-up and require the user to push one of a few buttons or select one of a few options. I don't really care what it looks like or need anything special. I just would like to know how to get started...

    NX 7.5 Journaling - General Assembly Question

    Thanks Frank, I changed the work part to get the objects I needed. However, now I'm trying to using those planes, datum axes, and bodies for constraining the assembly component to planes and points in my original work part. Every time that I attempt to use the variables containing planes or axes...

    NX 7.5 Journaling: Problems with using arc center of created arc later on in code

    So, I've been combing through the help file and trying all sorts of round about options which don't see to be any good or very robust. Here's my issue: I create an associative arc from three points (start, end, mid) and then need to use the center point of the arc later to create an associative...

    NX Journaling problem with Datum Axis

    So, in UG/NX 7.5, I'm writing a journal that entails a combination of point, datum axis, and datum plane creation. I currently have the issue that once I create a datum axis, I cannot store the object in a variable... I only have the variable of the type Features.DatumAxisBuilder or an NXObject...
