Is there a way to get UG NX2 notes to follow a curve in drafting?

If you mean the text curving as a curve and not just following curve position, then no.

...at least not without a GRIP license or GRIP program. You can also look into Wiedemann Engineering's True Type UG ( It costs roughly $1000 for one license of True Type UG. It CAN place text along a curve, but it uses True Type fonts.

Hope this helps.

I thought there was an old grip program that would do this. I'll try to find it in my notes.

Question would be, will it still work if I find it?
 
There used to be one in the International GRIP library and it was called O-text (kinda why I mentioned GRIP program to begin with)[wink].

I can probably get my hands on it, but here's the link to it. Not sure if the link will work unless you're a member of PLM World:


Again, it's called O-text.
