    Importing NX '.prt' /dxf /dwg formats into SEv19

    lol that figures... it's never easy. Yeah, NX uses it's own font library. There may be a way to use windows fonts, but never looked into it. btw, nice processor. The Q6600 I take it? I'm running one at home... the thing screams

    Importing NX '.prt' /dxf /dwg formats into SEv19

    Hey, I just wanted to check back and let ya know I got it working ok. As it turns out, the reason why I was getting the import errors was because it was trying to export/import the font I was using in UG/NX. To correct it I re-exported everything to a CGM format, turned the text into...

    Instance Geometry not able to select datums (planes or axes)

    So you want to instance the datums? Or use the datums as a reference point to instance by (ie, mirror body or array)? Your post sounds like the former of the two. I just tried it (nx3) and it will let me select datums to instance, but it will not let me actually pick them (they don't show up on...

    Setting Sketch colors? NX3/4 (also setiing default UI's)

    one of our customers is constantly sending us files where the sketch colors are ALL the same. So constrained, un-constrained, over-constrained, text, dimensions, ref lines, etc are all the same color. As you can imagine, this is a nightmare on sketches where there is a lot of fine detail. It's...

    Importing NX '.prt' /dxf /dwg formats into SEv19

    Thank you for the quick reply, I'll have to double check what version it's exporting it as, but I'm almost positive that it doesn't give an option (probably the latest I would assume). Maybe I'll have to export, import to an older version of autocad, export then try importing into solidedge...

    Importing NX '.prt' /dxf /dwg formats into SEv19

    Hello all, I have a customer who primarily uses SolidEdge v18 (or at least that's the system they're using at the moment) that I had to do some simple 2D drawing modifications for. Since I'm much more fluent with UniGraphics, I had my customer export the files to a DXF/DWG format and then I...
