    NX Journal: Turning Expressions into Labels

    i am still confused on the purpose of this, MBD is to me transfer ( to the reader) info on how the geometry looks and how to manufacture/ tolerances etc, the feature buildup can be a completely different story, and not necessary a good one either.. NX is maybe the most "allowing" cad system, it...

    Moving body from part back to assembly level part

    Or,: Create new component + select the objects to move to the new file. ( and delete originals.)

    I-Deas .xpk

    If i remember things correctly, the .xpk was a export package specific to I-deas -> NX.

    NX Journal

    there is a site nxjournaling.com run by a fellow from here... :-) Look it up, i think there are examples to view.

    correct reuse file location.

    The mass fix is to properly define the search directories, and the search order for best performance, then save the resulting "load_options.def" -file. ( This file can be named anything if : ) On each NX using computer you either have a common UGII_ENV_FILE which is read upon start , which in...

    correct reuse file location.

    To be honest i do not really follow you here... When running NX Native , it's the Load options dialog / settings that will "search" the files . I'm not sure all are aware of the ability / how this works : The order of the named directories is the search order. "C:\projects\" will search this...

    Through Curves command

    I think this question is answered. OP has posted the question twice on the Siemens forum. The ends of the curves are not closed.

    Through Curves command

    Are the section curves closed , end to end or is there a gap ? - Use the measure function and measure minimum distance from the end points. NX is very precise so if there is a gap, it needs to be very small for NX to "bridge" .

    NX 2212: Subtraction error.......

    Is that second extrude a solid body and not a sheet body ? You have that option in the extrude dialog.

    Sketch Failure Message in NX

    Open the Sketcher , start the reattach dialog , snap a new Origin Point. ( or the same) This should cure the message.

    Tools distribution/locations........

    Once one learns how good the command finder is, it is exactly what i have been missing in other softwares... Do i need say MS/Word ...?

    NX 2212 - Sheets from curves..............

    If you go Edit - Feature- Remove parameters you can "kill" the Pattern Geometry feature. The lines will then be totally non parametric and will not be visible in the part navigator.

    NX2312 Sketcher and Drafting - Approximate Dimension Symbol

    I am not using the new sketcher yet. In Drafting, are these symbols still visible if you de-activate the sketch ?

    any company/individual with a NX licese for sale?

    Sales of used software are not popular by the software companies, normally they want to sell the software "as new". The real problem is the license which is locked to a specific server. The license is not impossible to crack but be aware that Siemens is tracing illegal copies and will knock on...

    NX 2212 - Sheets from curves..............

    Is this the real wireframe model you are asking about ? Or are you trying to learn methods to apply on real model ?

    NX 2212 - Sheets from curves..............

    I assume the picture is an illustration to the question? Else you would do this specific model in 2 features, 1 extrude and 1 blend. There is a very old command Sheet from Curves, ( + 30 years old command , it will not be updated.) It will create all planar sheets in one go, but non associative...

    Distance patterning on a spherical face

    I assume that you could use the "NX Algorithmic modeling" for this. ( i do not have the knowledge.)

    Siemens NX Center Constraint

    Create a datumplane in the center of each pair ( The bisector plane) use the datum planes instead for the constraint. ( Touch/Align since it's 1 on 1) If you anyway are to write code for this, you would be using ootb functionality and full associativity. Regards, Tomas

    Help Needed: "Clearance Analysis Object List Contains Invalid Objects" Error in NXOpen

    Curious, what does your program do that the out-of-the-box NX functionality does not do ? Regards, Tomas

    Plotting management......

    NX plotting was inherited when UGS merged with SDRC in the beginning of the 2000's The reason it's "kind of special" is that it's built to work on many operating systems, Siemens/ UGS did support both Unix and Mac os at the time. I guess that Siemens keeps it but will not touch it anymore.
