We just upgraded to NX10 from NX8.5. I knew of some the potential issues brought on to the drafting by the new dimensioning function. I had been in those famous webinars, but having not used it I was hoping it was not going to be that bad. But seeing is believing.
On the subjective side, I still do not like it. Any time you want to do something that not is right in the pop-up you have to wade thru an even longer menu - where the previous graphic interface has been removed, and to make things worse most of the stuff has been split up (so you find less function per menu entry).
On the less subjective side, I found after very little use that some issue are plain unsolvable. I had instances where I could not re-associate center lines, or dims. (the dim. would just stay as is regardless of new object selected, or some snap options would be simply not available, e.g 2-curve inters.). Yes, in older versions you would also at times be better off deleting & creating from scratch than editing, but I was hoping this has finally been fixed...
So now to 2 of my more specific issues:
- how do I add a new dim./location to a chain dim. ? (nx8.5 you could select the chain dim and click add...)
- how can I make the diameter dim. in the below left look like on the right ?
