    NX 2212 - Move body

    Hey Toost, started out on Unigraphics version 6 in 1990. Got this from the person I replaced. NX 2306 Windows 10https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=d4be7578-c373-4b42-8b31-96e4dfaa9dc1&file=thumbnail_1000002615.jpg

    errors in editing

    Hi Bleaker, thanks for the information. NX on the system is in fact 1700, I'll check with our IT about this. NX 2306 Windows 10

    errors in editing

    Thanks for the reply. Cleanup has been run several times without success, looks like a call to our var. Have a nice weekend. NX 2306 Windows 10

    errors in editing

    The frequency of these errors is increasing when trying to edit features. This is not part specific and part cleanup does not fix, only closing and re-opening the files and or session. The listing below shows an error very shortly after opening the session and only doing a few edits. Has anyone...

    nx crashing on windows 11

    Thanks for the reply. We also have some non-cad users on laptops on windows 11 who are also seeing odd issues such as the cursor disappearing when using windows explorer, that's why I'm pursuing this line first. NX 2306 Windows 10

    nx crashing on windows 11

    We recently had to replace a windows 10 laptop running NX 2306 with a windows 11 laptop running NX 2306. Some of the issues we started seeing on the new laptop is the cursor disappearing when using file explorer which seems to be a windows bug. However, NX will close without warning when running...

    NX 2212 - Move body

    Hey cad2015, how do you count other systems? The beginning was Autocad 2.6 on dos 2.3 to Autocad 10 on windows 3.1. Ancient history. Currently it's just NX, Solidworks, and Alibre Design Expert. There are others on the forum who are versed in many more and it's fun lurking here learning from...

    NX 2212 - Move body

    If you're moving an imported dumb solid move face with selection set to feature can be used, otherwise if it is a parameterized model move face with boss or pocket faces can be used, just pick one of the outside faces that is obviously not a boss or pocket. NX 2306 Windows 10

    How to move a specified part only and add constraint at the same time?

    Add the "fixed" constraint fist to part B if you don't want it to move. NX 2306 Windows 10

    hot keys triggered in sketcher

    When typing an expression or formula into an input for dimension in the new sketcher, whenever a letter that is a hotkey is pressed it cancels the input and jumps to the hotkey function. Example, this is similar to what I wanted to type. nth(variable_name,{1,2,3}) what happens is when the "t"...

    reorder parameter tables

    In utilizing parameter tables in library parts it is some times necessary to reorder them so they make more sense. The only way I've found to do this is to export the ones to be moved then importing from file in the new order. Has anyone found an easier way to do this? NX 2306 Windows 10

    sketch fill pattern

    Update, decided to use pattern feature with a linear definition and a boundary using a face to control the feature. This makes the most flexible and stable feature for a shape which can change dramatically. NX 2306 Windows 10

    sketch fill pattern

    I'm looking to: 1. create a sketch on a flat face of undetermined shape and size 2. face may or may not contain one or more holes (openings) 3. create a boundary with said face edges 4. fill boundary with a pattern of curves that stay within 5. use sketch to create 3d geometry as a...

    journal stopped working between 2212 and 2306

    @cowski, you were absolutely right about not being able to find the "model-plain-1-inch-template.prt". This file was in the startup directory, but it was the "ugs_model_templates.pax" file in the startup directory that was the issue. Still not sure what about the "pax" file was the problem...

    journal stopped working between 2212 and 2306

    Tested this again today, this journal runs without issues in 2212 but errors out in 2306. It depends on a specific directory structure and errors out and any project, so it doesn't look like a file system issue. Thanks in advance for any help. 'NX 12 'journal creates burn assembly from...

    Need to calculate least size bounding box REGARDLESS of coordinate system

    Wow, didn't notice this option. Already added this to a component that gets modified and re-used constantly and it will both save time and insure accuracy. Always assigned sizes to attributes with a journal and would have to update it with every change. Opening the way-back machine, using an...

    Text engraving and single line fonts

    Rob N, that's the font we user for "on curve" engraving even on doubly curved surfaces, but because it's a series of straight lines it's difficult to use if you want to simulate a ball cutter in 3d. I feel the pain of the process but there it is, and it's still better than other cad systems. NX...

    Irregular Profile in NX

    This looks like a part where much of the underlying geometry has been modeled away, and some of the remaining is invalid for any production use. I don't believe it can be, or should be, reproduced exactly. Unfortunately, the geometry that would control any parameters is missing, eliminating a...

    Relations Issue

    In a different thread it was stated that inferred relations were incorrectly taking priority over dimensions. Version 2306 has the option to switch between the old sketcher and the new one without restarting, and will automatically edit old sketches in the old app. Last word was to stick to the...
