Exploded views toolbar in NX 9

[pamakela]

Hi,

how can one bring up the Exploded views toolbar in NX 9? I see I can use Menu -> Assemblies -> Exploded views -> Show toolbar. Nothing shows up, however. What am I missing?

Never mind - got it!

I suspect that this is going to be a common problem for many that upgrade. What is the trick?

You will have to locate the exploded views button on the assembly tool bar to activate the exploded views tool bar.

Thanks but I still don't get the toolbar. Just like the OP, when I go to Menu -> Assemblies -> Exploded views -> Show toolbar, Nothing shows up. Does not seem to matter what "Role" I am in.
I thought I just must have a broken install, but to hear that someone else had the issue and fixed it gave me some hope.

OK, I understand, Need to leave Home tab and go to Assemblies tab.

In other words, more mouse clicks? Seems to be a recurring theme with the new and "improved" interface, based on the grumblings I've been reading.

Menu -> Assemblies -> Exploded views -> Show toolbar is if you use the classic interface.

In the new inetrface, if you RMB the exploded assemblies icon you can add the whole exploded assemblies to other places with all the icons available (see image).
