I am trying to use Steelwork in Mechanical Routing. I am following this video I do almost to the end but stuck in Assign Corner step
Assign Corner—>Corner Type—> Cope is grayed out.

Forgot to mention I am using NX 1899 series
 
I sorted out myself. A hidden feature (Platform) I needed to enable.
 
Sorry I didn't understand what you want.
Just search Platform while you are in Mechanical routing mode and you will see that Corner Type ---> Cope can be selected now.
I hope this helps.
 
Maybe a screen shot of how that feature was hidden.

Those limitations, that you have to have a specific license and a specific "discipline" in Routing active are truly ridiculous.
You cannot add a beam unless you have selected the correct discipline and if you have selected the steelwork discipline, you cannot add a round pipe since bla bla and neither can you add a cable tray because bla bla bla.
Please Siemens , try looking at this from a usability and productive perspective.
This is ...

I agree with Tomas.

Someone please share an NX model with routing BOM drawing. How to show details of cut (Miter/ Cope).
 
Hi,

I agree also with Tomas,

I have routing license but not platform license, so I can't use miter and cope.

I don't understand how it is possible to use routing without this kind of corner
