I have CMM data for a surface profile tolerance on a converging-diverging nozzle in the form of a .igs file. I would like to open the file in NX, drop in the CAD model of the surface that was inspected and then position the surface model so that it is best-fit to points in the .igs file (i.e...
Correct, the "weld" illustration is just a depiction of what the actual weld looks like, and the "symbol" illustration goes on the drawing. Glad it helped!

Castings are the exact reason that I generally use promote body. We also carry the cast model and machined model on separate part numbers. When creating the machined model, I will add the cast model as a component, promote body, and then apply the appropriate machining. Promote body does NOT...
In general, I think wave linking is much more powerful and useful. The only time I use promote body is when I want to make the manufacturing process clear (for example, when I have a casting modeled as one part and I want to create a different part for the machining of the casting).
If you put...
I do quite a bit of work designing cast parts and the subsequently machined versions of those castings. Both parts are always shown on separate drawings, but when creating the machined part drawing, it is generally extremely helpful to the machinists if I include a reference line of the cast...
