Macro to check Sketch Constraint??

[Kishen12345]

This may have come up in other threads, but i figured i ask anyways.
I have a completed UG model(NX4.0). To ensure that I have all my sketches constrained before i release the model in team center I would like to do a sanity check .Obviously I would have taken care of that(fully constraining all my sketch) while modeling but is there a way I can build a macro or use a tool that would run through all the steps, check constraints and ouput a report in Excel or something as part of my model validity check.

Thanks!

That's why we offer a product like 'Check Mate', where one of it's built-in (meaning you don't have to create one yourself) checkers is titled:

Sketch Full Constrained?

And the documentation states:

Checker Description:

This checker checks if all the sketches in the work part are fully constrained.

Extracted sketches and linked sketches are ignored because they do not have constraints.

For more information, go to your NX Help files and search on 'check-mate' and select the result item titled 'Check-Mate overview'.
