Hi,
I have a master model with parts in a pattern and array. I have to suppress some parts by an expression. And indeed, this works! with suppression by expression. But when I update the model and make it bigger, so that the array put new parts in the assembly and the pattern is creating more...
yes indeed it is strange, and I think that I've had this problem before but I can't remember how I solved it.
I did try updating the sheet but it won't work. I thought it was something by origin but can't find it anymore.
thanks anyway!

I have another question, I've placed dimensions to the view, these have to change when the model get's higher, thinner or less width. I've found that I can use origin dimension to let this work. Now it works for the width and thickness, but the height will stay on it's place when the views are...
I've give it another try. now it works!
First I did only 1 view with an anchor point and had aligned the other views with this one. But when I placed anchor points to all views it works good to me![dazed]
Hi Thomas,
Thanks for your answer.
I've tried it but it only works when the scale stays the same. If the scale is changed the view gets another position.
Is it possible to fix views with a dimension in drafting? I have a model that I adjust with parameters, it can adjust from 100 mm till 1300 mm. So I've made an expression for the scale. This all works, but the views are moving from the place where they were in start position.
I'm looking for...
Thanks for your answer! But I think it is not exactly what I want. I don't know about the scale of the drawing via expressions, can you explain me something about how to set these settings to let it work?
Thanks!
Hello,
I've made a model in NX 8.5 that I can adjust by parameters. I've placed some views in drafting mode on a A4 size paper. Now i'm wondering, is it possible that when I adjust the parameters and make my model bigger that the drafting takes a A3 size paper? Maybe it is possible to set a...
No, actually I'm very new to this program and i'm learning new functions very quickly every day thanks to this forum.
So if i'm right, I should make a (master)assembly and then go to
Tools->Part Family
Then select the expressions and create the excel sheet?
Thanks
Hi,
Thanks for your answer! I tried it but I can't figure out how it really works. I made a new assembly with the part families. When I select to add the master part, a dialog opened. And indeed I could make a criteria. But I don't know how they will be linked together.
For example, when I...
Hello,
I was wondering if there is any step by step description for knowledge fusion?
Or is there anyone who can tell me what the basic settings are to use this function?
Im doing internship and my job is to make master model which I can adjust by changing some parameters in an Excel sheet...
For example:
I want to suppress 1 part in the assembly if the length of the block is less then 310 or greater then 320.
Is it possible to put this in one formula? I only got the formula working with the less function shown down here:
if (length_block<310) (0) else (1)
I just tried it, and it works!! Thanks a lot! And I als had to uncheck TOOLS->UPDATE->INTERPART UPDATE->DELAY GEOMETRY,EXPRESSIONS,PMI UPDATE
After that it worked like I wanted. But now I have another question.
Now I have to click one part in the assembly to change the expressions, so...
Hello,
When I have a simple assembly, like two blocks constrained in length for example. Is it possible to link expressions to them so that when I change 1 block the other one takes the same length? So that I can easily adjust shapes. I work with NX 8.5.
Thanks in advance,
Tim
