    NX9 Lightweight Section

    2 Questions: 1) Section Plane wire frame re size We are creating lightweight sections in parts with PMI and we have determined that is not possible to re size the section plane wire frame that is created by the Lightweight section operator. We have situations where the section line arrows are...

    NX7.5 PMI Weld Symbol Decimal Places

    I have created welds in my part but I do not want to show the number after the decimal place. Is there a way to adjust this, so when I inherit the information from the weld it would read a10 instead of a10,0. Thanks, Matthew

    NX 8 Invalid guide string definition

    Sometimes Invalid Guide String refers to a tangency issue. If your guide string is comprised of multiple curves I would check there.

    PMI Tabular Note

    Is there a way to create a Tabular Note within PMI? We make Tabular Notes that have "merged" rows in our drawings. We have a tool that was created with visual basic I believe. All it is doing is importing the data from an excel spreadsheet and creating a Note in PMI that uses a multi level GD&T...

    Mass Name Change in Part Navigator

    I have a file with large quantities of curves in the part navigator. I need to rename these curves in the part navigator for down stream users. Is there anyway to perform a mass name change, for example, select 30 curves and rename them C1,C2,C3 etc...

    Deviation Guage Decimal Places

    Can anyone tell me if it is possible to change the number of decimal places shown for the labels within Deviation Guage. I have checked in Customer Defaults and User Interface with no luck.

    Offset in Face

    Jerry1423, It is located under the Direction and Method section of the Offset Curve in Face operator. I apologize if the original thread was unclear. Hopefully this helps to clarify my question.

    Offset in Face

    I am using Offset in Face in NX7.5 and I noticed that Geodesic is now included in the list of choices for the Offset Method. Can someone explain to me how the Geodesic offset is calculated versus the Arc Length method. I have read the help files and the explainations are not the clearest (to me...

    Under Depth in the Form and Dimensions area of the Menu you can access Measure. You can actually access it via Diameter,Depth and Tip Angle. Hope this helps.

    Making a Non Associative Spline Associative to defining points.

    cowski, You are correct in your understanding. I want to a rectangle selection like the old spline operator would allow, and then create a spline that is associative to the defining points. Background Information: The points are being created from Sections through curves.

    Making a Non Associative Spline Associative to defining points.

    I am working in NX7.5.3 and I am creating studio splines by selecting the points, one at a time. I noticed that it is possible to use the old spline operator and select all the points at once and create the spline. And then go back double click on it and assign associativity to the spline. The...

    NX Deviation gauge

    I am using the deviation gauge to measure the difference between planar splines (half circles) to a cylindrical surface. I have a grasp of how most everything works within the operator. The one item I cannot figure out is the Positive Inner and Positive Outer fields under Tolerance. Do the...
