Hello everyone!

 

What is the trick with using Scale Factor in the Print utility? Whatever I put there, it does not change the actual line thickness on a paper sheet.

Aero Snap for Graphics Window (NX11)

$

Hi Experts!,

I am preparing a Training about Update NX9 to NX11.

There is a graphics window utility called Aero Snap but I am not able to understand how and what it is suppose I can do with this ....

Any idea or document that clarify text include in documentation of this training?

I attach text about it in doc for training:

 

Aero Snap for the graphics window

You can display the same part with different orientations and scales in multiple

graphics windows. You can use the Aero Snap feature to resize and arrange the

graphics window to a specific area in the NX window.

• To snap the graphics window to a quarter of the available area, drag it to

one of the four corners of the area.

• To snap the graphics window to half of the available area, drag it to the left or

right side of the area.

• To maximize the graphics window, drag it to the top of the area or double-click

the title bar of the window.

The Aero Snap feature is available for the Windows platform only. To

enable Aero Snap, turn off the mouse option Prevent windows from

being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of the screen

on your Windows operating system.

 

 

Thanks in advanced for your help!!

So I am wondering how to do a radius callout that also shows its center.

 

Thank you for all your help.

Lightweight Data Validation Report

$

Hi,

NX says :

Lightweight Data Validation Report
----------------------------------
To help locate problem components, place the view and use the following techniques.
o Use the 'Find Component command', search 'By Attribute' using the 'LW_DWG_GEOMETRY_OMITTED' name, the '!=' criteria
and a blank Value to select all problematic components in the assembly navigator.
o Use the Check-Mate test 'Check for Components with no Valid Lightweight Data' to find all such components.
This test is situated under the Drafting Test category.

Bodies that failed due to having no lightweight representation:
Component Name 2710019B
Component Part C:\Drawing Files\ZIP\2710019B.prt

Possible Corrective Actions:
Generate the lightweight data. For more details, see documentation.

How can I generate

lightweight data		

 I've Set the Automatic LightweightGenerationcustomer default, but I don't have license for Assembly Representation command.

I need to use the refile command or I've a interactive solution ?

Populating title block with Material and Weight

$

This has been an ongoing battle, since I started with my current employer.

 

We use NX in a master model system, with Teamcenter.  Yesterdays thread on the Material attribute changes in NX 10, caused me to revisit out drawing formats, hoping to resolve it.

 

I edited one of our drawing formats, adding the attributes:

DB_DWG_TEMPLATE_NX_Material

DB_DWG_TEMPLATE_NX_Weight

 

I then edited the title block, to look at these attributes.  Both show as expected in the template:

TitleBlock.JPG

Next I created a new model file, and assigned a material.  Saved the part.  Started a new drawing, using the format I edited, and the Material and Weight are blank.

 

I know NX_Material and NX_Weight are considered system attributes, so I can't see them in the file properties.  How can I see if they are actually being created?  with the previous "Material" attribute, Teamcenter is set to control it, in the attribute mappings file.  Could this still be the issue?

 

Other thoughts?

Hello

I have some parts with similar geometry (i made them by copying one part and changing some dimensions after that). Then i made a drawing sheet for one of them with views, full description and annotations. How can i transfer this drawing sheet to another part with views' dependency changing?

When i use copy/paste command for the sheet i get the only linked one.

Is there any solytion of my problem or the only way is to make drawings before copying the part?

I do not know how to get component moving stops exacly when collision is detected.

What is the difference between Highlight Collision and Stop Before Collision in Collisin Detection in Move Component Box?

And ...how I have to apply this Move Component command in order to get the movement exact that can the components move and avoid collision with rest of Components in Assembly and in order to save in an Arrangement?

NX Routing mechanical change in stock diameter

Hello,

Does anyone know if it is possible to change stock diameter of the routing with automatic changing in diameters of all fitting objects? For example, once you created the routing consists of pipes, elbows and tees having same diameter 150mm, when you change stock diameter to 200mm all elbows and tees for this routing would change their diameters as well to 200mm.

thank you in advance
Andrei.

ID balloon add colour infill

Hi

 

I have a requirement from production to highlight the fixing method of certain components by having a colour infill or background to an ID balloon on the assembly drawing.

 

I know there are many more sophisticated methods of doing this with PMI etc. but this is an easy initial win with our current practices.

 

I have attached a PDF example that uses symbols positioned over the balloons. This would be fine but they don't align associatively very well when you repositin the ID balloons.

Reuse Library Assembly Clone

Hello,

 

I've put an assembly which consists of parts and subassemblies under Reuse Library and made a KRX file of the top assembly.

 

When I try to clone it, the parts and assemblies are made unique but the parts under the subassemblies are still referenced to the library parts.

 

I would like to make a a completely unique clone that is stand alone from the original file.

 

I'm new to NX and would appreciate guidance.

 

Thank you
