To John,
If an additional Drawing Component is added, will the effect the object count on a parts list?
To Cubalibre00,
Good tip on the option. I had not considered the exploded view. I do wonder if you could still get your exploded view through an arrangement. Not the most ideal approach...
I was having trouble comming up with the words for a clear definition of the Offset Methods, so I made a visual aid. Please see PDF linked below for my understanding of their function.

Thank you for the timely response. Though I have to say, it's disappointing. I guess I don’t really understand the purpose of the command now. Let’s say you identify 50 faces that are tiny or misaligned among 10,000. Then what? What do you do with this information?

Hello all,
When using Examine Geometry in NX6, I usually check for Tiny and Misaligned objects. I know, after processing, you can check the boxes to Highlight Results. However, what I would like to do is move the highlighted results to another layer so I can quickly reference/select which...
Did you check your Assembly Load Options to see if Allow Replacement is checked? That usually fixes the problem for me.

The Journal Worked! I applied our color standards to each layer and ran the journal file. The first attempt didn't work. I was getting an error on the line shown below:
displayModification1.ApplyToOwningParts = False
ApplyToOwningParts was not a valid function of the library. I...
Excellent! I have no problems going with a Journal file. I'll try this out and get back with you all. Thank you again for looking into it.

Hello all,
I am trying to make a macro that will perform the following function:
<Start from a file that objects on some or all layers with all layers turned off>
1. Turn all layers on.
2. Set TFR-ISO view (fitting all to screen.
3. Edit Object Display.

Thank you John. That was clear to the understanding. Now that you have explained it, I am having a hard time thinking of a situation where you would not want this option checked.

I was scanning through some of the Customer Defaults in NX6, and came across one I didn't understand.
Customer Defaults -> Drafting -> Extras -> Drawing
Under this tab I have 1 option called Drawing Work Flow. The text after the check box reads "Create Drafting Component for View of Master...
The only difference between the build of each workstation is the keyboard and mouse being used. You think it could be a brand issue?

looslib,
I believe we are running the latest and gratest for NX4 (Win 7 64bit, NX4.0.4.2 MP9). We did do testing for the NX4 on Windows 7, and all checked out on the first 2 workstations we upgraded. After that, it was hit or miss for having this issue.

Hello all.
All of the Workstations my company have been upgraded to Windows 7. All of the workstations have NX4 and NX6 loaded on them. Almost all of my co-workers are still using NX4. Half of them have a problem where every time they use the keyboard number pad, it causes NX4 to crash...
Nevermind. This turned out to be a driver issue with the graphics card. Apparently Windows 7 did not have the best driver to support NX4. After downloading the latest driver from Nvidia, the problem is now fixed.

Hello. Slightly embarassed to ask because I have fixed this problem many other times. For some reason, this time, the solution is not presenting itself.
Question: What setting in NX4 would cause assembly components, when moused over, to highlight every feature of the component (one feature...
Thanks for your replys. I will see about updating to the latest version of NX6. If the problem persists after that, then I will go to GTAC.
