I have text that displays the part mass in modeling so I can see it update as I work. I'd also like to do that with the centroid and Moment of Inertia Values but I'm not sure how to make an associative relationship. This was easy to do with Part Mass. I just did an associative Body Measurement...

cowski, Works like a charm... Thanks a million! You've never left me hanging. Do appreciate it. If you're ever in Chicago, I owe you a beer!

cowski, That worked great. I appreciate it. One thing I failed to mention though is that the "DWG_STATUS_TAB" I'm trying to delete actually exists on multiple drawing sheets. When I run this, it only deletes the tab on the first sheet. I have to run it again for it to delete it on the next. Is...

Clarification... I know how to group them together, just not sure how to call out the delete. Let's say I combined them into a group called "DWG_STATUS_TAB", how would I delete?

cowski, I get an error saying No object found with this name. What I did was recorded a journal, selected the lines and notes, deleted, and stopped recording. I'm pretty sure it just can't find the specified objects in every file. The if/then statement is simple... strDWG_STATUS =...

I can get this to work with the majority of files, but the occassional one does not work and I'm not sure why. I have a simple if/then statement that if a part attribute has a certain value, then to delete three curves and four notes from two separate sheets within a drawing. These curves and...

Cowski, Thanks for your help! I figured it was a simple naming convention I was missing. You always pull through!

Hello All, I've written NX Journals to export the current drawing sheet as a .pdf with no problem. dim shtName as string = workPart.DrawingSheets().CurrentDrawingSheet.Name() Dim sheets1(0) As NXObject Dim drawingSheet1 As Drawings.DrawingSheet =...

Several months back, my GMID was deactivated. I never really found the reason as to why that happened. Unfortunately I had to go back to my company's security administrator and go through the entire GMID account process in aquiring a NEW account. Good luck.

I am currently running NX8 and am looking to get Visual Studio so I can further my programming ability with NX Open. I know NX8 is compatible with Visual Studio 2010, however I see that 2012 is already out. Does anyone know if VS 2012 is, for sure, compatible with NX8? If it is, I'll proceed...

I'm not sure about using the Master Model. This is how IT has it setup. Our format file does have "master" under the Relationship heading when going File -> New (might not be the same thing). I saw there is the new tools for drawing templates, just haven't quite figured out how they work. Is...

My apologies, we just upgraded to NX8.0.1.5. We have our "format" file that we use via the File -> New dialog. We'll generally create our model in the format file, then go into drafting and run our grip to determine which pattern needs added. I assume by using the drawing templates, you're...

For years now, we've always used GRIP programming to retrieve a pattern that was our titleblock in which we populated with attributes. Our design department is looking to completely re-vamp our titleblock with a new improved one. Whenever possible, we are trying to eliminate our old GRIP...

Nevermind, figured it out. By right-clicking on the section view and going to style, you toggle the display section line box. If it is already checked, which it was in my case, uncheck, apply, re-check and OK and your line will be there.

OK, so I know that you can no longer toggle off section line display in NX6. They want us to use Hide instead. My question is, when you open a file that was created in a previous version and the section line display was toggled off, how do you bring it back?

Thanks for the quick response, John!

Hello all, Just upgraded to NX6 yesterday! Only thing I'm not seeing is the icon to edit crosshatch boundary. In the past, If i needed to place a dimension or ID symbol over crosshatching, I could then edit the boundary and add the dim/symbol and it would just x-hatch around it rather than...

I have written a journal that automates exporting .pdf drawings to a specified location. As of now, I just export the "current display" (doing a view -> fit beforehand). However, I need to revise this to export the sheet, rather than the display. How can I revise this to automatically export a...

@FrankSwinks How can I revise your current journal to set a specific directory for export (i.e. C:/Parasolids)? Thanks in advance.

@FrankSwinks Thanks for your help! The parasolid export does work both with single components as well as assemblies. That is exactly what I needed. However, we have all our cad files in Teamcenter, therefore, it cannot export the parasolid to the same directory. I need to be able to put it in a...
