    Naming layers in 7.0

    thanks, i thought there was an easier way. Perhaps a suggestion for the good people at siemens for the next release maybe??

    Naming layers in 7.0

    This might be simple and obvious, but I have been using NX for 7 months and I have yet to figure out how to name a layer. NX 7.0.

    Cutting plane

    Using Catia v5 R19, sometimes I need to work on details that have the view blocked by another portion of the part. What i was wondering is, can I cut a part using a specified plane and then keep that view to work? Basically, can i no-show half of a solid through a plane?

    NX 5.0 buttons and graphics speed

    I still need to use the middle mouse button, but i was hoping there was a mouse options under preferences somewhere, where i could turn that feature off. If i cant, then i guess i cant. The second issue: Its not so "easily" hide and show. If i switch from space "a" to space "b", it rebuilds...

    NX 5.0 buttons and graphics speed

    Two part question-is there anyway to remove the middle mouse button from being an "enter" key? I use the same button to rotate and I end up pushing "ok" for things i dont want. second question is-is there any options or tips for speeding up NX when you flip between visible and non-visible...

    cross sections and linking

    Thats what i did in the beginning if you see my original post. I would say most of the time that works, but when i get files from certain automotive companies, it does not. Which leads me to believe that there is some option switch or some checked-checkbox somewhere affecting it.

    cross sections and linking

    I do not want them associated. I want two completely independant files.

    cross sections and linking

    I tried it but it still doesnt work. I actually found out that if i add a "parent" to the part i am able to copy/paste that way. There has to be a feature turned off on the file or something.

    cross sections and linking

    Using NX5, i want to cut a cross section of a part and then put in a seperate file. Usually I make a sketch and use the cut/paste technique and it works. However sometimes I cannot use this because it says that it is "linked" to solids (usually doesnt work on the files i need most). Any...

    NX 3d corner

    Thats not quite what I was looking for. I am thinking of two curves in space and making a radius corner. This corner being radius and tangent to each curve. They have "bridge curve" but you cant enter a radius value. Catia does, and thats what I am looking for. For visualization, think of a...

    General Motors switching to Catia V5?

    In detroit here, work with both GM and Chrysler...GM is staying with NX and Chrysler is going to switch to NX. When? Thats a guess.

    NX 3d corner

    Just making the switch from Catia to NX7-Im looking for the equivalent function of the "3d Corner". I see a "cylindrical corner" but the results are never tangent to the two lines i need. So what I am doing is making the cyl. corner and then "bridge curve" and try to match it as best I can...
