MIRROR DISPLAY

[FILB]

MIRROR DISPLAY WILL NOT SHOW MIRRORED BLOCK THAT ISNT ON THE SCREEN. WE DESIGN MANY "MIRRORABLE PANELS" AND MIRROR DISPLAY HELPS KEEP THINGS VISUALY LINED UP FROM SIDE TO SIDE. IN NX3 IT DIDNT MATTER IF THE BLOCK WAS VISABLE OR NOT...IT MIRRORED IT'S DISPLY.

PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR 'Caps Lock'!!!

Thank you.

As for your problem, it's not a matter of whether it's being displayed as much as whether the other bodies are INSIDE the 'clipping planes'. Try going to...

View -> Camera -> Edit...

...and near the bottom of the dialog in the section titled 'Clipping', select the button labeled 'Fit Planes to Extents' and then hit OK. Now check to see if that resolves your problem.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

IT DIDNOT FIX THE PROBLEM

DRAW A BLOCK ABOVE Y=0. IF YOU ZOOM OUT AND CLICK MIRROR DISPLAY IT SHOWS BOTH BLOCKS. IF YOU ZOOM IN ON THE MIRRORED BLOCK, FAR ENOUGH TO TAKE THE SOLID BLOCK OUT OF THE PICTURE, THE MIRROR BLOCK WILL DISAPEAR. IN NX3 IT STAYED VISABLE NO MATTER WHAT.

 

[JohnRBaker]

I'm sorry, but if you do as I directed, reset the Clipping Planes after you have zoomed in, this problem will be resolved.

Now as to your OTHER PROBLEM, please turn OFF 'Caps Lock'!!!!

If you continue to type in UPPERCASE, it will be precieved as if you're SHOUTING at the audience and eventually people will ignore you altogether.

I TRIED WHAT YOU SAID AGIAN ON A NEW DRAWING. IT STILL WILL DO THE SAMETHING. DID YOU GET IT TO WORK?

 

[JohnRBaker]

Yes, it works for me, using NX 7.5.
