"Make Current Feature" or Rollback option in Siemens NX 1

[Mato148]

Hey all,

In every CAD program I've used, there has been an obvious "rollback" feature that allows the designer to step through each feature in the feature tree to see how the part was made.

Does this not exist in NX???

I'm aware of the "Make Current Feature" option but this is far from from stepping through each step in the feature tree. The user has to right click on each individual feature and then select the "Make Current Feature" option just to see one of the steps. This is a very tedious process. Wherein other programs, there is a bar or line that you can drag up and down the feature tree to see each step. This is a CRITICAL feature when seeing how other designers are making parts.

Please tell me this exists in NX.

Search for "feature replay" in your command finder.

Also, depending on the version of NX you are using, you can enable a column in the part navigator called "current feature"; a click in the cell will make the corresponding feature the current feature. Twice as fast as your current, tedious 2-click procedure!

Yes, the "feature replay" is exactly what I was looking for!

Thank you.

When you are looking for something in NX enter what you are looking for in
the COMMAND FINDER near the upper right corner of the NX window.
