    Thank you!

    NX11 on Windows - Java prerequisities?

    I'm about to install NX11 on Windows7. Which JRE is required? 32bit or 64bit? Spend at least an hour searching in the documentation, release notes and any other Document available without finding any answer... :-( Thanks in advance.

    Wave link to reusable component

    Okay, thank you. I think the configuration of the machine in regards of the standard parts is somehow wrong and I completely misinterpreted the problem. Cleaned up the windows temp folder (contained temporary folders regarding the reuse library)and it turn out that now, when loading an assembly...

    Wave link to reusable component

    I'm not sure if we are talking about the same thing. Your first sentence reads as if I was trying to add linked stuff to an instance of a part family member. From a users point of view I don't. I just want to link geometry from the instance into another part.

    Changing size of linked datum plane?

    Thank you for the detailed explanations.

    Changing size of linked datum plane?

    I actually tried 'Use Display Prperties of Parent Part' which seemed to be exactly what I needed. The original plane is part of a datum csys. Is it possible that this case is not considered and that it is the reason why 'Use Display Prperties of Parent Part' does not work in my case? Same...

    Wave link to reusable component

    What is the best practice when creating wave links to standard parts from the reuse library? Apparently the parent part file of a wave link needs to be modified which isn't possible because it is a standard part. Right now I'm using 'make unique' but it doesn't feel like the right solution to...

    Changing size of linked datum plane?

    Sure works only on a regular plane. But on a linked plane it opens the wave linking dialog so I was hoping there is another way...

    Changing size of linked datum plane?

    Well, the subject is already the question. I have several wave linked datum planes and they are displayed in a huge size that visually hinders working on the model. I can of course hide them but I would prefer to just resize it as suitable like I would do with a regular, non-linked datum plane...

    Nx9 - Transfer customizations

    Thank you, but that is not quite what I was looking for. I know that there are options for 'static' customizations but that doesn't help keeping customizations that happen on-the-fly during work in sync between the different apps.

    NX keeps creating expressions that are referenced by non-existing/invisible expressions

    I had once the same problem (NX9). The 'ghost' expressions kept popping up as 'user defined' and I couldn't delete them. Quite annoying! File cleanup did not help either. So yes - I have experienced it. But I don't know a solution. I just ignored it.

    Changing Interpart References

    I don't know if it is possible in NX6 but in later versions you can use the expression browser to get a list of references: - load all parts that could reference the expression + the parent part of the expression in the current nx session. - switch to the parent part and open the expression...

    Nx9 Electrical Routing and Qualify Part - anther Rou

    Qualifying a part I'm trying to assign the terminal ports of a multiport using the 'Create Arrays' function. The documentation mentions only that "Terminal ports define by reference to an instance array, both circular and rectangular." and that "Terminal ports defined by instance arrays are...

    expressions of type 'list'

    Thanks John! I did not yet look into the examples but I will as soon as I have some spare time!

    Nx9 - Transfer customizations

    Is there an easy way to transfer ui customizations between applications? I know I can do it manually messing around manually with the user mtx and an xml editor which is better than nothing. For example I would like to share all customizations I have made to the modelling application with the...

    expressions of type 'list'

    The expression editor allows to create expressions of type 'list'. The documentation mentions that list-expressions are used to "...streamline NX DesignLogic interactions and provide additional functionality capable of handling a wider variety of design tasks." Intriguing! Can anybody comment...

    Nx9 Routing - 'Create Linear Path'

    I was missing the snap option. Thank you!

    Nx9 Routing - 'Create Linear Path'

    When using 'create linear path' ports don't seem to be selectable as start/end-points. Is this just another bug in the routing application or am I missing some weird logic?
