    Hide parent surfaces in sketch

    Nope, just figured you could double click on it and all would be good, had no idea that was the same as edit with rollback. Right click "edit" solves the problem. Thanks. Appreciate the prompt reply to my inquiry

    Hide parent surfaces in sketch

    Have a sketch. Did an intersection through a surface in the sketch. Exited the sketch. Now every time I enter the sketch it shows the parent surface of that intersection. How do you permanently hide the parent surfaces of intersections.

    NX training (In house)

    Siemens training is a joke, at least the class we took was. First off it was titled "NX for experienced designers" yet the first 3 days were spend on sketcher.

    Permanently disable cursor box

    Let's see, maybe after you place the dimension you edit it, seems to work fine that way in a very number of programs. Totally ridiculous that you have to see this distraction follow the cursor everywhere covering up what you are trying to work on. For the people that like the functionality...

    Permanently disable cursor box

    It is becoming painfully obvious that the people who write this infernal software don't use it. When in sketch there is a useless and very annoying box that floats on the cursor, how can this useless and annoying box be permanently disabled. Hitting F3 is not acceptable, it is ridiculous to...

    I will try that method next. For this instance is it possible to get the sketch to follow the plane and datum axis? I have used the browse window in an attempt to get the sketch to move however nothing works as I am expecting it to. When using the reattach button the sketch move to body...

    Possible to have text parallel to grid in 2D view

    Creating a new 2D drawing. When puting a thickness dimension on a section in a view the resulting dimension text is on an angle. Is it possible to change it so the text will always be horizontal. when using more sophisticated CAD programs the default positioning is always horizontal so the...
