Hi, I am trying to add notes to components via PMI whereby you pick on the specific component and it automatically labels the corresponding part number from the assembly navigator in a 3D model view. Any idea if this is possible? Thanks

Yes, the 'Part Identification' PMI object is available in NX 7.5, in the same place as Kapil showed for NX 8.0.

Hi Guy's,

I have tried using the PART IDENTIFICATION command but this only seems to give me the assembly number and not the specific part within the assembly.

Where am i going wrong ?

Cheers
 
Hi,
Just make the component a work part in the assembly and then use the PMI PART IDENTIFICATION.

Hi Kapil,

Now i understand and get the result i was after, however this will be very time consuming if you have many parts to annotate within the assembly.

Thank you anyway for your help ?

Cheers
