I was using CATIA for BIW fixture design and recently trying NX12.0 for the same.
It would be great to know the similar commands in NX as CATIA like-
1. Overload properties in drafting (Want to hide a specific object or show all hidden lines of specific object)
2. Copy object format (want to copy setting for dimensions like tolerance, font, dimension line etc for other multiple dimensions at once)

Hello Harshada,

1. There is a command in NX which performs similar to requirements you mentioned in point one. Right click on the view in which specific object is present.
View dependent edit>edit entire objects>select line font(you can select line font "Invisible" to hide that object AND you can select line font dashed i.e."----" in order to show all hidden lines)>apply>select curve/face/edges to edit.

2. Select the dimensions to edit. Right click on any selected dimension.
Settings>Inherit>select Setting Source as "Selected Object" > Select the object from which you want to copy the settings.

I hope it helps.

Thanks,
Adkad
