    Translucency

    the "A" block was created first with both translucent and non-translucent faces, then saved. It was added to the assembly at a later time, all face non-translucent.

    Translucency

    Working with NX 12.0.1.7 on windows 10. I have a component that has some faces that have no translucency and some faces that are translucent (about 70%). When I bring the part into my assembly I lose all translucency and the only this I can do is have a part that has no translucency or the whole...

    Join Curves

    Does anybody know what will be replacing join curves, it looks like it will be retired after NX 12.

    Join Face

    The problem with Optimize Face is that it removes parameters, so you can't go back and edit surfaces if need.

    Join Face

    We create large sheet bodies with multiple surfaces, and before I use thicken to create a solid, I would use join face to clean up the surfaces. So I can't use combined and delete face may change the results I'm trying to achieve.

    This worked pretty good, not all that hard once you know what to do. Thanks Taylor.

    Adding a check to an expression

    How do you set a limit of travel for an expression in NX10. I have an expression that needs a limit of +.375 to -.375.

    Help with balloon leader

    Clicking "Select Terminating Objects" is faster than chasing the extension line, but it would be nice if you didn't have to do it every time.

    Out of Date

    Is there an easy way to tract down the cause of a component to be out-of-date. I have the clock in the Assembly Navigator and the "!" in the header. I'm using NX 9.0.3.4 on Windows 7.

    Death to the Engineer

    Thanks guys the Aide PDF to DXF worked great. I didn't even have to have I.T. install it. You may have just saved an engineer.

    Death to the Engineer

    Another day in Paradise. I had an engineer hand me a PDF, and asked if I could make a 3D model of it. To my knowledge, there is no way to do this...or is there. I'm on NX8.5 and was wondering if there is a way to convert a PDF to a 3D model or at least convert it to a .dwg/.dxf. Keep in mind...

    Wave Linking - Fix at Current Timestamp

    Is there a way to shut off "Fix at Timestamp". I keep turning it off, but when I start a new session or switch from one part to another it is back on. This has come back to bite me when I make a change in the base part, but then discover the wave linked part has not changed. I am on NX 8.5

    Coordinate system

    I'm on NX8.5, both the CSYS and Triad are on and the blue, green, and red arrows are visible, but there aren't any call-out to tell you what vector you are in.
