3 – Minutes – CAD Siemens NX #010 – #018

Design Groups - Delayed Update

There are Feature Groups in Siemens NX but there are also Design Groups. You can structure your model with Design Groups. One advantage of Design Groups – you can update just the Design Group and leave the rest of your model at the current state. – Enjoy!

Boolean Operations with Design- & Featuregroups

You can use Design Groups & Feature Groups for Boolean Operations as well. The result is slightly different. Enjoy!

Break-Out Section view

The Break-Section View command is not in the ribbon anymore – you´ll find it here – Menu – Insert – View – Breakout – enjoy! Here you´ll find all about the breakoutview: https://youtu.be/3kfGkPtqeZY

View Positioning & Monochrome Drawing Display Command

In order to create a view like this, you need arangements, view positiioning and the Monochrome Drawing Display command. Enjoy!

3D Breakout Section View

You can use the Breakout Section View also for Isometric Views – Enjoy!

Raster Images - Import & Placement

Quite easy and convenient in Siemens NX – Import and Placement of Raster Images – enjoy!

Sketch Navigator - Show Moveable Objects & Fixed Height of Dimensions

So it completely escaped my attention, there has been a „new“ sketch navigator in Siemens NX for over a year, sorry for that! This is a short video with a first look, there will be more. Enjoy!

Sketch Navigator - Curves & Relations

The sketch navigator is a very useful tool and replaces the „old“ relations browser for good. This time I take a look at the Curves & Relations Tab – enjoy!

Sketch Navigator - External References & Issues

This time I take a look at the External References & Issues Tab. All in all this Sketch Navigator is a great tool. Enjoy!
