Updating multiple features at a time 1

[Constantin Witzleben]

Hi Everyone,

I've been using NX Journals to help create some larger but fairly simple parts. But because NX individually graphically displays every little change, this often takes very long. I know that in other CAD programs it is possible to only display the changes once the journal has run to completion. Does anyone know if this is possible in NX as well?

Thank you!

Regards,
Constantin

I don't know about doing this in a Journal, but if you were running a normal program, like GRIP or User Function, there are commands to delay the update of the display. In GRIP it was DRAW/OFF and DRAW/ON.

In a journal, it looks something like this:

SetDisplay(UFConstants.UF_DISP_SUPPRESS_DISPLAY)
'do stuff
SetDisplay(UFConstants.UF_DISP_UNSUPPRESS_DISPLAY)
RegenerateDisplay()
