    export point values from nx to excel

    hello, We were wondering the same and we ended up doing our own custom nx function... It can export to notepad, excel and from any selected or absolute Csys (with or without point feature name or point name). We used NxOpen and visual basic. You need a specific license though to compile code...

    Color / Colour display (again)

    John, I am using Nx 7.5.4 Anthony : that was it !!!!! You did the exact thing i was not doing in order to get the check box available: you re-applied a color to the whole component. As it is clearly demonstrated in your video, if you try to go in the Assembly tab without a uniform color...

    Link an expression to an attribute

    thread561-279206 Hi ! I've looked into the thread561-279206 and this is pretty close to what i'm looking for, except that I would like to get a real number (not an integer) to be in the attribute. When i use : ug_setPartAttrValue( "CustomAttribute_1", format("%0.0f",85.25 )) I get 85 in...
