Hi all,
I created an extrude with Until Next option, see the attached file. I was expecting it will select the face of white colored block (first solid body), but it has selected the face of last solid body!!!

It works fine for me. I'm running NX 4.0.4.2.

In fact I went into Edit, and changed the end option from Until Next to Value and then back to Until Next and it stopped right where you wanted it, as seen in my attached example.

I was facing this problem with NX4.0.3.3. We reinstalled ug and problem got solved!!
 
Well, I will tell you how it got started. I was giving some basic ug training to the freashers, and I wanted to explain all the options of start and end limits in the extrude command, it worked fine for other options except "Until Next".
 
Man,

That's about the only time that I use it either [wink]. Sometimes I use the equivalent option with the new hole feature in NX-5, as it seems to double for the old through hole.

I tried to test for this post NX-4.0.4.2 and it seemed to work just fine, using either your test part or one I created. Just using until selected can't hurt.

Best Regards

Hudson
