NX 10, Teamcenter 10.
I am having some trouble creating a new part in an assembly (modeling in place). I have "Assemblies" selected for the application. I have the upper most assembly selected as the work part. I have "Entire Assembly" selected in the box (not sure what to call this box). Then, I select "Create New" in the Assemblies tab. As soon as I do this, a window pops up for me to fill in the part name and ID, etc. Also, the box where "Entire Assembly" was selected, has converted to "Within Work Part". After I fill out all of the Name and Attribute fields in the new window, and hit OK, another window pops up. It is the "Create New Component" window and it is asking me to Select an Object. When I select and object, that object is then a component of my new component in the heirarchy. And nowhere am I prompted to select a face to sketch on. I just have a new component that contains another copy of existing components.
What I am actually trying to do is sketch on the face of an existing component to create a new part.
Thanks.
