The what's new document for NX7.5 does not seem to detail all that is new.

A few new things I have heard of that are not documented are:

Re-attach chamfer dimensions
Attributes have been worked on (not sure what exactly was done)

I'm sure there are many more.

Is there documentation for these and other new features? I have seen the fixed problem report and it is too vast to read and I'm not sure it would detail the new features either.

I take it these other improvements are detailed in the NX7.5 help file but I was hoping for a document that details only the new features that are not covered in the what's new document.

Does any know of any other non-documented what's new's in NX7.5?

NX 7.0.1.7, TC 8.1

The 'reattach chamfer dimension' was handled as a PR (I submitted one of the initial PR's myself) and therefore would not have been included in the 'What's New' anyway.

As for the the comment about Attributes, YES, a lot of work HAS been done, but it was all at the architectural level which means, at least as far as NX 7.5 is concerned, that there is nothing yet implemented which would benefit users in terms of new behavior and/or options. However, that will be forthcoming, just not until NX 8.0 when we will start to build on this new foundation that has been laid and we start to role out the enhancements and new capabilities, which will be fully covered in the 'What's new for NX 8.0' doc's.

Now I'm not claiming that we've included every single enhancement in minute detail (some things may have fallen through the cracks, as it were), but I can assure you that all the major stuff has and what may have been missed was not done so intentionally. If something did deserve more 'space' that it was initially given, there will be opportunities to include those in the updates to the 'What's new' which are included with each MR release.
