    NX 1980/2000Trying to make a macro to change lines from dashed to solid in drawing

    cowski, I don't know why I didn't think about the part navigator! When I select multiple views directly on the sheet and right click, I only get a few options (cut, copy and properties). The part navigator allows me to change them all. Thanks so much!

    Issues editing crosshatch settings NX1980/2000

    cowski, We don't usually create the drawing sheets. Those come from engineering and we manipulate them to work for our parts and service books. Will changing this work for when I load the drawing? I assumed "Ctrl + A" would work as normal, but it hasn't been. I can select them all...

    Issues editing crosshatch settings NX1980/2000

    My employer just made the switch from NX11 to NX1980. My department uses NX to edit drawing sheets to use in Adobe Illustrator. I used to use a macro that would let me edit the appearance of all crosshatching in every view of the drawing sheet. Unfortunately, the same method doesn't seem to work...

    NX 11 how to change all crosshatch settings on drawing sheet

    Just thought of this... I use Adobe Illustrator for all of my technical illustrations. I have my most used tasks saved as an action so that it will perform set action with a keyboard shortcut. Does NX 11 have anything like this? Could I save these steps as a shortcut to execute with a few...

    NX 11 how to change all crosshatch settings on drawing sheet

    I am a technical illustrator and at work we have just updated to NX 11 from NX 7. A lot of our drawings have crosshatch in the section views and I need to figure out how to change the settings on them quickly. In NX 7 I used to be able to do a select all and change the settings for the...
