Hi Sccot
This I didnt now before.
I have trayed to do that in BOM table but changing in the Bulk Edit is similar convinient 
Thank you very much, This is exactly what I need
I am appreciated !

Dependencies > Parents: sorted by what?
What does NX use to sort the parents or children of an object in the Dependencies tab?
Thanks!
If the parents can be sorted by time-stamp, the list would look much more organized.↧
Deactivation of thread cut lines possible?
Hi all,
Does anyone know if there is a setting to deactivate the auto creation of thread cut lines (Geman: Gewindeanschnitt) in NX?
When creating a thread hole, these lines will automatically be displayed in a section view. We want to deactivate these lines by default for specific drawings.
Default representation in NX:
Comparison: Solid Edge will not display these lines by default:

Assemblies/subassemblies and BOM management
Hi all,
Not sure if this is a NX or Teamcenter discussion, but I will try. I have tried to search for a solution but could not find the answer I am looking for. Perhaps I am searching the wrong thing or what I want is not a good way of doing things.
I am using NX11 with Teamcenter 11.
I trying to figure out if it is possible to do following: Below I have a figure showing assemblies and parts like you see in NX assembly navigator. When working in NX I want to have "dummy" assemblies (RED) to better organize the parts and subassemblies, but when I send assembly-1 to structure manager or add a part list in drafting the only thing I want to see is the parts and assemblies marked in GREEN.
If I can recall i did something similar in Inventor where I made the assembly phantom and/or promoted the children. Been a while so not sure what I did. Anyway, the assembly was removed from the BOM, but the children was included.
Possible to do something like this in NX?

NX12 point to point movement and selection filter
Morning all,
I have recently moved to NX12 from NX9.0 and I seem to be having a few issues that is making NX12 a chore to use..
First is the point to point move function, or any move function for that matter. In an assembly in NX9.0 you could pick a cap head screw for example, open the move command, select point to point, click on the centre of the screw (ie the shoulder of the screw that butts up against the part being attached) and then click the bottom of the counterbore. NX9 would then move said screw to the desired hole - job done. I could pick both the screw and hole in any orientation with the shaded with edges view selected in NX 9.0.
Moving to NX12, im really struggling to select the centre point in any orientation with shaded with edges view. I can SOMETIMES get it by rotating my view right around so I am looking at the shoulder, but that doesent always work. The only way I'm reliabally able to select the centre pont is to keep switching to wireframe which allows the centre to be picked without any issue, then pick the bottom of the c/bore, screw moves and I can go back to shaded with edges.
The problem isnt just with point to point, its happening with all the "move" functions as well as "translate" functions - Very annoying!!
Secondly is the selection filter. On a number of occasions in the assembly I am working in the selection filter box goes blank so when hovering over a part it says "solid body in ##insertpartnumber##". I keep having to go up to the top on the drop down and select "no selection filter"...... Again another frustrating/pee you off feature of NX12.
Any help would be greatly appreciated on the above points.

is there any option in NX similar to "Pack and go" Option in Solidworks?...

Re: Pack And GO
Hi
not as OOTB (Out of the box) integrated into NX, but you have to customize your toolbar with a journal called Zip Assembly.
You can find all files in the zip on this thread.

Re: Part Family Attributes in Assembly Instance
wrote: 1) I think you are modifying an expresison, not an attribute?
or is the attribute linked to an expression?
2) If you add a 2nd copy of one of the PF members, and edit the C_angle, do both change to that angle?
I'm modifiying a attribute.
When I add the first instance of PF (NUMBER 1 in image above) the C_angle ATTR is inherited from the family(in another words, all PF members has 90 degrees as default angle) as you can see "Attribute is inherited from component part".
Then I add the second one (or a copy
But I can't get my macro work even if I don't modify any attribute. It's like NX can't recognize my PF custom ATTRS.
I'm starting to think that the problem is to read it at all

Re: Assemblies/subassemblies and BOM management
Without a total understanding of what you are trying to accomplish, To me it looks like you need the Mulit-Structure manager functionallity of Teamcenter.

Re: NX12 point to point movement and selection filter
On the move command make sure you turn on the option to "Allow Selection of Hidden Wireframe". In shaded mode this will allow the selection of things you know are there but cannot see. In the moive I did a move component and started with it turn off and could not pick the shoulder, then in wireframe in can pick the shoulder. I went back to shaded mode and then turn on the "Allow Selection of Hidden Wireframe" and was able to select the should that I can not see. My guess is that you had this turned on in NX 9 and the off in NX 12.
HTH,

Re: How to turn a parasolid flat-pattern into sheet metal ?
Hello
Try the following:
- In sheet metal application select the solid body and convert to sheet metal.
- Run the bend command and select each of the lines on the body and define the required properties for each bend.
You will need to define the bend properties depending on the curve selection (bend centerline for example).
As long as the curves on the parent body are selectable you should not see any issues.
By the way, I assume you know the formed shape of the part? Not all bends are 90deg of course.

With your assembly as the displayed part, run the journal below. It will report the component attributes. It will help verify that the attributes are on the components as you expect and it may provide a starting point for your own code.

I'm looking for methods that others are using to accurately check wall thickness where symbolic threads are being used. Curves get generated to show where the depth of the threads are. However the real geometry is set to the minor diameter thus not including the threads in the calculation. Any suggestions other than using detailed threads?

Re: Assemblies/subassemblies and BOM management
Hello tok,
in the dummies parts you can "properties" and place "yes" on the atribute "PLIST_IGNORE_MEMBER"
aditionaly you can create a template for "new files" where you already have that atribute placed.
i dont know if there's better workaround. (this is the way i do)

a group of parameters multiplied by a factor?
I have more than 20 parameters set as constant numbers (e.g. p21_x = 50).
Is there any easy method to get all those parameters multiplied by the same factor?
For example, with a factor 1.1,
- p21_x = 50 >>> p21_x = 55
- p22_x = 60 >>> p22_x = 66
- ...
All those parameters are "Total" in Curve Length features. I don't want to set them as expressions like p21_x = 50*factor, because I need them to be constant numbers to be able to be adjusted by mouse dragging in the future.
Thanks!
