Hi All,

I've got three pax files residing in a dir. I've changed the UGII_template_dir variable to that location in the system variables. Now when I start NX11 only on menu is loaded.



Where can is change this behavior?

Check the log file (menu -> help -> log file...) and search for "pax"; this will tell you where NX is loading the pax files from, and if any errors are encountered with the pax files. I recently did some work with pax files and there was an error in the syntax (I missed an "=" sign in one line); the entire pax file was ignored and would not load. The log file pointed me to the exact line in the pax file where the error occurred.

fixed it. The filenames referenced in the pax file where with full path name. I've cut the path part of the reference and now it works. Pax file seems to be looking into the same dir as he is.

thnx anyway :)

Do you run teamcenter? It is really nice storing the PAX file there.
 
When you run Native mode, the simple solution is to place both the template parts and the pax files in the directory "UGII_TEMPLATE_DIR".
We keep the paxfiles for both Native and Teamcenter mode in this directory , in case somebody would run native mode.
then only the filename ( no path ) is the syntax.

Regards,
Tomas
