    Jagged, blocky JT export from NX9?

    Hi, PROBLEM: The JT assembly model exports I have recently* made are all coming out jagged edged when I open said JT file in VizMockup. All round objects (spheres, cones, cylinders, etc.) are hexagonal/polygonal. I've tweaked the UG/NX JT Export settings and get little to nothing and even worse...

    Why no PERSPECTIVE Views allowed in Drafting?

    I'm actually designing a house in UG (yeah... slightly overkill, but I deteste AutoCAD). Perspetive views are very useful in the architectural drawing. It just seems wierd that you cannot have it.

    How to maintain line thickness NX2-->DXF/DWG?

    I translated to DXF, but the line thicknesses were not maintained. Why? Thanks

    Any architectural FONTS available?

    Any other place, since I cannot get access to that site? Surely there are freebie DLs on the web?

    Why no PERSPECTIVE Views allowed in Drafting?

    That method doesn't work as I've tried that before. It gives an error that says you cannot do perspectives. Maybe it's the NX2? Does NX3 allow it? Thanks

    Notebook for NX 2 / NX 3

    The UG seats at work are QuadroPro, so you cannot go wrong with that. The first Sager I got had some ATI, but like NKWHEELGUY said... it sucked. The card couldn't handle it at all. Then they happen to come out with the QP card and I was in heaven!

    How do you BOLD Lines or Fonts?

    Thanks. I'll try it. Oh yeah... NX2. But I assume the same goes for NX3?

    Running NX2 on a laptop.

    If you have money ($3600), go SAGER or like. They have QuadroPro card option and can get beyond 2G RAM. Dell is not so great. I'd take the HP business models for protable workstation over the Dells.

    Acrobat 3D and UGS

    I have Acrobat 7 Pro and it seems like it will allow you to import 3D view, but when I tried to import a Product Vision file, it didn't work. I thought Vis Mockup was an allowable format???

    Why no PERSPECTIVE Views allowed in Drafting?

    Other less powerful CAD systems allow this. Why can't you insert a perspective view into your drawing sheet? Thanks!

    How do you BOLD Lines or Fonts?

    Sorry this sounds so stupid, but why doesn't UG display the actual THICKNESSES of Lines and/or Fonts when you select the thicker options in the corresponding EDIT functions? Are they just for when you plot? I've only been plotting to PDF so far and it doesn't even change thicknesses when I do...

    Any architectural FONTS available?

    Was wanting to use UG for some architectural drawings (yeah... overkill, but I deteste AutoCAD), but the selection of FONTS is bizarre. Where can I DL other FONTS? Thanks!

    Notebook for NX 2 / NX 3

    I have a Sager 9800 series with an Nvidia QuadroPro video card. With 2G RAM, UG looks EXACTLY like it does on my laptop as it does at work on the workstation. $3600 total. You can look for the HP Business class. It isn't a brick like the Sager and other 17" gaming laptops, which is what mine...

    Sunlight: Can UG model shadows per Sun's path?

    I am modeling a house and want to plan windows accordingly. I know UG isn't designed for AEC, but just thought I'd ask. Thanks

    Architecural FONT: Where can I get it for UGNX2?

    Appreciate any help. Can't seem to locate any on web.

    Best way to Export UGNX2 to SW05 and keep assembly?

    Newbie question... Is it possible that SW05 can open a UGNX2 assembly... and retain the assembly? Thanks

    Importing DXF/DWF into UGNX2?

    Sorry for the newbie question, but I cannot seem to be able to IMPORT a DXF or DWG file into UG. I select IMPORT/DXF-DWG and when I try to import it into existing Work Part, it tells me Drawings cannot be imported into work part... blah, blah. Then I try IMPORTing into New Part. I name the...

    Reconnecting Assembly components AFTER moving file to another folder?

    Thanks. I must have done something wrong the first time I tried that. It works now.

    Reconnecting Assembly components AFTER moving file to another folder?

    UGNX2... I created drawings from an Assembly file in a computer at work. Then I transfered the files to my home computer, which has a totally different folder structure. When I open the drawing files, none of the components open (were found), because the components could not be found per the...
