Hidden modules wanted.

[Bogdan1985]

Dear Experts,

I pressed randomly an unknown button or combination and discovered, I have hidden modules. For example for Molding and very important for me: Wiring. I saw short time a menu with different modules, LIKE IN THE ATTACHMENTS FOR CATIA, NOT NX.

In my opinion is NX not logical, it is a chaos. Normally you should find a missing thing in seconds . Since meanwhile 1,5 Years I am working almost every day with NX but 1 problem after another.

So, knows someone where the hidden modules are? See attachment.

You can find ALL officialy released modules, whether you actually have a license to use them or not, by going, in NX 8.5 or older versions of NX, to the 'NX Start' menu, and starting with NX 9.0, at File -> Applications. If you select some application that you don't have a license for, you'll get a simple error message to that effect.

Now it is true that there have been, over the years, certain 'hidden' capabilities in NX, either on a menu item by menu item basis or by hiding an entire toolbar or menu items on the Application menu. However, there is no interactive way to activate these 'hidden gems', they can only be made visible and accessible by setting secret and undocumented environment varibles, so there's no way to accidentaly, or as you say, "randomly" make something appear or not.
