    Question about importing polygon model from something like Maya to Solid Edge

    Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to import a model from a program like Maya and use it in Solid Edge. I know you can do .stl's but they cannot be edited or manipulated once in Solid Edge. Therefore I am wondering if there are any methods of saving to a format that can be edited, even if...

    Help with Parallel Computing on multiple remote computers

    Hello, I have used the Parallel Computing Toolbox very minimally and am having troubles finding information on how to use it with other computers besides local. It is easy enough to use on a local machine, but I cannot find any straight forward generic guides on how to do it remotely with other...

    Constraints in NX 7.5

    How do I constraint something like the endpoints of an arc onto a part of a spline that is in that sketch plane, as seen in the attached picture?

    NX 5 and Inte HD Graphics problem

    I understand this, like stated before, I did not get to choose this laptop, as it was from my boss. Where that CAD is for school and not my job :( But changing the reference sets seems to resolve my issue, I just hope I don't have to do it to everything I load.

    NX 5 and Inte HD Graphics problem

    Thanks for the input but as stated before your post, when I right click a part and go to "Replace Reference Set" -> FACET it resolved the issue but I dint know why and how to apply it to everything

    NX 5 and Inte HD Graphics problem

    So changed my reference set for the model to FACET and it was able to render it properly. Do you have an idea why that would be?

    NX 5 and Inte HD Graphics problem

    unfortunately that did not resolved the issue. I will check out the GTAC site, unfortunately I did not get to choose this laptop, so I guess I'll see what we can do.

    NX 5 and Inte HD Graphics problem

    I just got a laptop that has an Intel HD Graphics card. I can run NX, but when I load parts, the are chopped up and not display properly, see attached picture. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=4e0b8f77-9553-4ba0-a0fc-b01a9cb5cc89&file=NXgraphicsproblem.jpg So I dont know if...

    Accessing a License outside of a network

    So how does another computer actually obtain the license information. Does it use the licensing software, such as LMTOOLS or does it just need the environment variable to be pointing to it port@hostname? That is where I am confused, if LMTOOLS plays a role in another computer accessing the...

    Accessing a License outside of a network

    I tried asking this before, but don't think I was clear enough. So here it is again: I have a computer that has the license file on it and is the server. I have another computer on the SAME network that points to that file and works fine. Does anyone know how to properly configure the LMTOOLS...

    License Server

    hmm yea I've tried that. I'm still not sure what is the correct way of doing this. I might have to call up GTAC and see if they can help

    License Server

    can you give an example?
  18. anmorgan

    License Server

    Hey all, so I have a license that allows up to 10 users to have access to it. I currently have one computer that has the valid license and another computer on the same network pointing to that one, the same way itself does (28000@hostname). What I'm trying to do now is do this on another...

    Complex surfaces with NX 5

    Okay that is pretty neat. This helps a lot. Another thing, how do you place it on an invisible layer. And if I were to export this for machining or use this to do FEA, would that surface be considered?

    Complex surfaces with NX 5

    Hey guys thanks for the help. I was having troubles with the Through Curve Mesh, but now realized you have to add a new set for each line, so I was able to create my own shape. And I actually discovered the Studio Surface feature last night. So thanks for the help on that. Next thing: I saw...
