Hello everyone,
I am a recent convet to NX 6. I am having a problem seeing the part previews in the history tab of the resource bar. I know it must be a setting that I have set incorrectly. I have gone to the customer defaults>gateway>general>part>part preview and made sure that store preview is checked and under cretaion time on save is selected. Also at same location under Model View Preview, I made sure Store Preview is selected with creatin time set to on view save selected. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

What I do is go under File -> Properies -> Preview and
toggle the "on demand" button, then I press
"create preview now" and I toggle it back to
"on save" and then I save the part.
 
Thanks Jerry1423.
Although this did not work, I got an error stating that the window was obstructed and this caused me to remember a past issue. I am using dual monitors and I use my second monitor as my CAD monitor. I relocated my NX session and to my primary monitor and it worked. Thanks for the memory jog.

Dave
