Hello,
I have a little question: How to work with X-form command (in NX 6.0)?

I will be a more precise. I have a problem with selection surface for modification. When I try use X-form on the surface and choose from window "select object" nothings happen ;-( (image below)

Sometimes It helps commands called "Remove Parameters" which unfortunelly remove model history.
Is there anyway to handle it with this issue?

Peace ;-)

In NX 6.0, the face you wish to modify using X-Form must be a B-Surface. That limitation was removed in NX 7.5.

Hello,
Thanks JohnRBaker for reply.

In the other words: if I have opportunity to use X-form in NX 6.0 I must build my model with tools from "FreeForm Shape" Module?

Or at least 'Extract' B-surface copies of the faces created using normal construction techniques and then edit the copies of the faces.
