Why doesn't the drag and drop function work for opening a part or assembly in NX9?
I have the "Enable Drag and Drop Reorder" checked in Customer Defaults -> Part Navigator. Is there any other Drag and Drop function I should have checked?

IN what environment are you trying this? Standalone or Managed?

Same problem here. It was working a week or 2 ago. The symbol for the cursor changes to the red circle with a line through it indicating that it will NOT work. What gives? The Windows 7 environment? No changes to my NX profile. STANDALONE ENVIRONMENT. This feature does not work in TeamCenter.
 
Did you change Maintenance pack ?

standalone environment ... all I do is update what I get, no personal changes in MP though
 
Do you want to open the part or add as a component?
Are there NO parts open in the session?
Does it work if you double click the .prt file instead of drag and drop?

1. Open the file
2. No part open
3. double click works

That looks good to me. I would contact GTAC.
