Hi,
after using associative copy-->extract in a new layer i dont see any objects added to this layer. the new object is added to layer # 1
even though layer # 100 is the work layer.

What object type(s) were you 'Extracting'? Also, what version of NX are you running?

I'm sorry, but I can't duplicate the behavior that you have described using NX 6.0.5.3, per the attached example.

I can see the objects in layer 100 in your file like it should be, still when i extract another time on the same file the objects are
added to layer number 1.
I'll try to get pass that somehow thanks for the help.
