Ribbon_Style Keywords in NX10 2

[MEichWey]

Hello,

since NX9 we have the new Ribbon-Bars. To control the image-size of a button we have different Settings/Keywords in the rtb-file. In NX9 we only have small and large Images. The Keywords in the rtb-file are - RIBBON_STYLE [highlight #FCE94F]SMALL_IMAGE[/highlight] or RIBBON_STYLE [highlight #FCE94F]LARGE_IMAGE[/highlight].
Since NX10 we have additional sizes - medium and extra-large. The Keywords in the rtb-file for the medium Image is RIBBON_STYLE [highlight #FCE94F]MEDIUM_IMAGE[/highlight].
And now me Problem: I didn`t find any Keyword for the extra-large Image. I tried RIBBON_STYLE [highlight #FCE94F]EXTRA_LARGE_IMAGE[/highlight], RIBBON_STYLE [highlight #FCE94F]EXTRALARGE_IMAGE[/highlight], RIBBON_STYLE [highlight #FCE94F]XLARGE_IMAGE[/highlight], but nothing of them works.

Do any one know the right word? I´m searching in What´s new of NX10 and Documentation, but didn´t find anything.

Ribbon style keywords can be found in the menuscript help files; you will need to install the "programming" help to get access to them. The programming help files are not installed by default.

Alternately, you can use the online docs at the Siemens community forum.

The keyword that you're looking for is [highlight #FCE94F]EXTRA_LARGE_IMAGE_WITHOUT_TEXT[/highlight].

Hi Cowski, hi John,

thank you for your Information. Parallel I have made a Call by Siemens. Darren Heath has given me yesterday the Information to the keywords.

@John:
In one of your "Last presentations" on YouTube, you have shown the "Swept Volume" function. Is that an official function? In which Version? I was in Ann Arbor in September this year by beta-testing NX11. But I didn´t see that function in NX11. How and in which NX-Version can I activate this function?

I have heard that you will be retiring this year. That is very sad for us, but good for you. You have given this forum a lots of very good tips. So I thought we will miss you here.
I wish you a happy retirement and all good things for your future.

Michael,
the presentations i saw in Berlin at the PLM Europe, I noted NX11 for the swept volume. I think that it was implemented in a "later phase" of the NX11 beta which might explain why you didn't see it.

Regards,
Tomas

While it's not yet 100% official, the Swept Volume function should make it into NX 11.0. At the moment the ability to access the function is under the control of an environment variable for beta versions of NX 11.0. We're waiting on some additional Parasolid enhancements which should make it into one of the next development phases. If this works out as planned, the feature will be available without the need for the variable when NX 11.0 officially released in the Spring. As I said, this is still not 100%, but we're proceeding with the project on the assumption that it will be done on time and will provide the functionality that we want to provide our customers.
