True Type UG V2.2 windows7 64 bit 1

[bg32363]

Does anyone know how to get TrueTypeUG v2.2 to work in nx5 on a windows7 64 bit computer? It worked fine in nx5 when we were on 32 bit windows XP.

If you're running NX 5.0 I can't see what it is that you would need TrueTypeUG for since with the advent of...

Insert -> Curve -> Text...

...there is very little that it offered that you cannot now do in NX itself.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Thanks, but the True type V2.2 tool allowed us to make solid upsticking letters with draft, on arcs not just curves in a straight line.

If you look you will see an option to have the letters follow a curve, so create an arc of the appropriate size and use that option. Then once the letters have been created, you can extrude them with draft.
