NX 11 Inter part Expressions Warning Message

$
0
0

Hello, 

 

When I try to open any of the Progressive Die Wizard (PDW) parts in NX11, it pops with a warning message as attached. 

Warning MessageWarning Message

 

But if I open the same PDW part in NX9, I don't get the warning message. 

 

Though it preserves the expression as it is, but fails to update in the expression UI.

 

Could you please let me know the reason for this behaviour?

 

Best Regards,

Praveen

Significance of 'Edit Work Part Header'

$

There is one option from menu File >> Utilities >> Edit Work Part Header

 

There we can give description for the individual part and it shows status, creation date and time.

 

What is the significance of this status and description considering naive mode of NX and in context of Teamcenter intergration?

After I select the plane for sketching, I have to automatically select the orient the view to sketch command (Shift + F8) to make the view normal to the plane. Is there any option in NX 7.5 so that I can do it automatically?

Base view in drafting

Hello guys,
in my company we use now NX9 going from NX75. The problem that I submit is the following:
when you insert a view in NX75, the view is taken, by default, by the drafting file part (see image), while the opposite occurs with NX9 (see image).
Is there a way to set the customer default so that NX9 acts like NX75?

Ribbon Tab automatically resizing

Hi,

When working with dual monitor set up, I like to move some ribbon tabs to the second monitor. The problem is that after working for a while, and unexpectedly, the "Home" tab gets resized. I couldn't replicate the problem, because it happens when you perform some action or feature (like finishing a sketch) but not always.

 

Here is my starting layout:

 Start.JPG

Here is how it looks after working for a while:

 End.JPG

 

Has anybody faced this? How can I solve it?

Many thanks.

File Creation date keeps changing to saved date

I'm trying to figure out why everytime I save an nx file the windows properties of that file shows the creation date as the saved date.  Thanks.

 

Edit:  After some more testing it appears this may have something to do with our server.  Local files don't do this.  Only files that I'm saving elsewhere on the network.

Black edges in "Wireframe with hidden edges"

Hi all,

how do I change the color of the edges in the "Wireframe with hidden edges" view to the color black? When I change the color of the object to black under View -> Edit Object Display I get grey edges instead of black ones.

I want to have black edges because they are more visible on screenshots when the background is white.

Referencing Excel spreadsheet from Teamcenter

Its pretty straight forward how to reference list data from a spreadsheet in windows, but I have had no success to connecting to spreadsheets in Teamcenter.  Does anyone have an example of how to have a NX expression reference a teamcenter spreadsheet?  

 

I have made excel datasets under item revisions and even stand alone, but I can never seem to reference them.

 

Thanks.

NX 9, TC 10

 

I have two items (circled in red) in my drawing, that don't want to show im my parts list, and I'm confused as to why.  They aren't marked "reference".

 

Thoughts?  What else could be preventing them from being listed?

Hi

Flat-Pattern and sheet metal creating complains about "edges to be ripped..."

-> No Flat-Pattern created therefore.

The problem corner is in [picture 1] below and it needs to be "more open"...

  • *How edge rip works ? ( I now use Modeling->Extrude and open the corner [picture 2] with raw extrude power, but is there a better method what is this edge rip ? )

ER: Add assembly load option "From Folder and Search Folders"

Below find an ER of mine, if you find it useful, feel free to ask GTAC to be added to ER#7331881.

                            ER Template
                            -----------

Short Description of desired enhancement: <Problem rather than a solution>
    It is not possible to get components from the location of the assembly and from search folders.

What activity in your process is the product not able to currently handle?
    It is not possible to load components from the location of the assembly part and from standard part locations.

What result are you trying to achieve? (Please provide as many details as possible.)
    I want to load design components from the folder containing the assembly part file and standard part components from search folders.

Do you currently have a workaround?
    No.

Do you have a proposal for the solution you envision Siemens PLM providing for this capability?
    Merge the options "From Folder" and "From Search Folders".

What is the level of productivity gained from such an enhancement?
    HIGH, easier way to specify the locations for standard parts

Other information:
    Currently it is only possible to include the dot folder in the search folders, but that needs NX to be started from the folder containing the assembly,
    which is not feasible, since no one starts NX multiple times just to change the current working folder for the current assembly.

BTW, I have found that adding the dot-folder is not reliable at all, so this is no solution.

ER: Add ability to specify relative paths in assembly load options

Below find an ER of mine, if you find it useful, feel free to ask GTAC to be added to ER#7331909.

Short Description of desired enhancement: <Problem rather than a solution>

    It is not possible to use relative paths for search folders.

What activity in your process is the product not able to currently handle?

    I want to specify search folders relative to the location of the assembly part files.

What result are you trying to achieve? (Please provide as many details as possible.)

    I want to specify the folder to search for components relative to the folder of the assembly part file location.

Do you currently have a workaround?
    No.

Do you have a proposal for the solution you envision Siemens PLM providing for this capability?
    
What is the level of productivity gained from such an enhancement?

    HIGH, easier way to specify search folders in a structure folder structure.

Other information:

    We do have a structure folder structure to save NX part files separated by departments (shop floor, nc programming, design, etc.)

    Sample folder structure:
project
|
+-CAD
|
+-CAM
|
+-CNC

The CAM and CNC departments are using the CAD parts as components through the master-model concept, so the search folder should contain the relative path "..\CAD", but that doesn't work currently.
"As Saved" doesn't work, since I have standard parts that are version specific, so I need search folders.
