if you set the row height in the template, then turn off word wrap it should stay the same height. If that is what you are asking.

Insert > Sketch, then pick the view you wish to sketch in You will also need to turn Extracted Edges to Associative in your view style if it is not already.

Your select filter is probably set to Tangent Curves, change it to Single Curve and try.

if sheet metal is your primary function then you will benifit greatly from NX. Of course you might consider Solid Edge as well which is where NX's sheet metal comes from if cost is an issue.

SDETERS, the Drafting Plus will not be available until NX7.5 and it IS an add on module.....but not for existing I-Deas customers...they get it for free Hudson is right about getting a spaceball, makes NX a breeze to navigate in and no worries about accidentally closing a dialog. Another...

try mutiplying the radius times 2 ;) on a serious note though...I don't think there is an option to measure DIA instead of RAD

potrero, if you have access to the PLM world site, look for Drafting Plus or Drafting presentations from this years PLM World SDETERS, I wouldn't say TC training is more important, but it is certainly important. We did our TC training only for TCII so we missed a lot of important things like...

well, for us....most I-Deas users picked up NX pretty quickly. Some did not however and are still clinging to I-Deas for dear life :-P I think the main reason for that though is Teamcenter as opposed to NX. Also Drafting plays a large role in that as NX 2D is difficult to use compared to 2D...

easiest way is to open the part in it's own NX session. What I call isolate the part. Sometimes you may want the part to be replaced in an open assembly, so that is good too. Rule of thumb though is....if you are doing Save-As, it will affect anything you have open in your session. Another...

I'm not sure I know exactly what you mean, but there is a button on the Sketch toolbar called "Reattach Sketch" which will allow you to redefine the plane and the horizontal reference. I would try that.

I had problems with Linked Exteriors updating in NX 5 as well. I was told by GTAC the problem was fixed in NX6 and no fix in sight for NX 5

ahh yes, I always forget about simplify assembly because I don't like the way it creates ENORMOUS files when you simplify an entire assembly. I do however like that it completely solidifies your part into one solid...something linked exteriors does not do.

To get a better linked exterior, set the resolution to Very Fine, and set the chordal tolerance to a very small number (a thousandth or less). This will give you a watertight representation.

have you tried linked exteriors? Sounds like what you want

If I'm not mistaken, those settings are saved in your seed parts. So open the seed parts, make the appropriate changes, then save.

Another way is to change the color of your first solid body from the default color after your first major boolean. Then when another solid body is created there will be a color difference as it will be created in the default color.

I almost think it would be easiest to do this using part families. Create your part in it's finished stage, then create a part family that turns off specific features or feature groups in your part navigator to achieve all the desired stages of machining.

Easiest way I have found is to either create another detail view of the opposite side of the diameter, or just copy the view your detail is coming from. Dimension between those two views and move the extra view to adjust your dimension. Manualy modify the view border of the extra view so no...

In my experience, linked exterior works far better than simplify assembly. Simplify assembly takes a loooong time to create and it makes a file that has a massive file size. Linked exteriors however will only give you the outer surfaces (as surfaces), but it is an almost instant process and a...

I submitted an ER for this some time ago actually, though I would encourage others to do the same.
