Hello!
I,ve made code which helps me select points from 3d, extract coordinates of them and write ti the file.
When i select by clicking each point code returns me PointFeature and i have problem with that type:
When i trying to get location.x or y/z of pointfeature it returns me fail: feature has no origin.
Question: how to get coordinates xyz from the object?
Or maybe possible to convert it to nxopenpoint object where i can easily can do it??
Please help
Thanks

Hello Experts
I have working code(c#) for change the DimensionTextHeight in drafting.
I have converted the c# code to c++ using online converter ..........
facing single error any one please help me on this.
Thank you
Is there a way to identify if a part has any PMI dimensions?
Looking for a way to export from NX to glTF format. Facebook now allows glTF formats (GLB/glTF) to be included on your feed so you can have a 3D part spin around within a window on your browser. The glTF format is explained on Wikipedia as the JPEG of 3D. Of course, you're limited to 3Mb so pretty small.
I found this strange little tool online that maps CAD translation possible conversion paths. https://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/formats.asp?fmtin=16&fmtout=80 Showing a possible path through Autodesk products.
I can export a 3MF file from NX12.0.2. If I have a sub-division model, I can export an OBJ file.
Thank you...
Hello,
I`m trying to find a way how to get coordinates for each triangular facet face.
I think i able to get quantity and type of faces in facetbody by this below:
For Each facet As NXOpen.Facet.FacetedBody In workPart.FacetedBodies
Dim fACETLIST As NXOpen.Facet.FacetedFace()
Try
fACETLIST=facet.GetFaces()
For i As Integer=0 To fACETLIST.Length-1
lw.WriteLine(fACETLIST(i).FaceType.ToString)
Next
lw.WriteLine(fACETLIST.Length)
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
Next
that gives me output like 30 facet and type of each one.
But how to get vertex values??
I need these outputs for creation new surfaces (it`s also question how) instead facet triangulars in order to make sew for solid body instead unselectable facetbody.
thanks in advance!
Hi Everyone,
I want to do a pretty easy stuff, but I can't find any solution:
I'd like to have in the part history a parameter, as a feature.
As a empty/dummy feature that has 1 or more parameters. Ideally I would like to have numbers and string, but I suppose could be possible just with numbers.
The reason is to maintain a logic sense of where the parameter is required, not going inside the "user expressions" every time, that's very chaotic.
Another similar idea is to assign parameter to a feature folder...
Do you have any suggestion about this topic?
Realise dummy feature (as a move feature) just to use its parameter seems not a very clean way...
Thanks!
Hallo there,
I would like to get the value of the length of all lines which are at the specific layer. Then, when is possible to get the data in the table in a drawing.
i.e.
L251=3875mm
L252=5620mm
Thanks,
zest
I have created a few journals which change the visibility of specific layers based upon an argument that I pass with the journal code. If I create a New User Command, I can ALWAYS use the command. For example, if I am editing a CAM operation and I am selecting area geometry, I can change layer visibility with just one click of the user command. That works great. If I create a MenuScript button with the exact same functionality, it also works, BUT not if I am editing an operation, program group, or anything in which I have a dialogue open. The buttons on the ribbon bar are grey and not selectable. How can I make the buttons on the ribbon bar selectable? Some ribbon bars, such as the View ribbon, has many buttons that stay available with another dialogue open. Any direction on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for anyone who can give me a help.
If it can be done?
Cycle a folder → get the user-defined attribution from all JT files
Hi everyone,
Im trying to figure out how I could change the font of every item in the drawing. Dimensions, tables, notes, appended text, title blocks, the works. I havent been able to find anything on it yet and was wondering if anyone here had tried to do something like that before?
Thank you!
I have been programming in NX10's Python NXOpen API successfully using the "run_journal" batch process command. I have currently switched from NX10 to NX12 and have not been able to successfully run the "run_journal" executable as a batch file. In my command prompt, I can see the journal executable running but it never enters my script almost as if it is stuck when calling run_journal.exe. All of my environment variables have been set just as in the NX10 simulation. Is there any insight on this issue? Have some environment variables changed or been added?
Thank you,
Sam
I am currently working with the NXOpen Python API in NX12 and had a question about obtaining assembly versus work part position. In the part information window in the assembly file (right click on part --> properties --> information icon) a component translation and rotation variables appear with a delta position vector and (what I'm assuming to be) a delta rotation matrix.
I have two question regarding this topic: first, are my variable definitions correct? And lastly, if they are correct how would I obtain these values within NXOpen? I cannot find any properties or methods in the part, assembly, etc.. classes that would return these values for a specified part.
Thank you,
Sam
Hello there,
I want to put the dot on the model cross-sectional view lines on the NX modeling page and to excel the X, Y, Z coordinate information of this point. Example macros are doing through drafting, but there is none on the Model page. Can you help me?
thank you.

I would like to create a Journal file which finds all models in an assembly structure.
The individual models can be on different tree structure Levels.
Every model should be checked if it is "update to end". If not, this has to be done by the Journal.
Thats what I found by myself using the search function, but I'm not a programmer and my efforts weren't successfull.
http://www.nxjournaling.com/content/loop-through-each-part-assembly-and-...
I tried to record the "update to end" command by
-(Right mouse button click on "Name(filtered)" in Part Navigator)
but I wasn't able to implement the result correctly into the code linked above.
Thanks in advance, if there is anybody who can help me out.

End ModuleHi everyone,
I'm currently working on code for work to take a linked body and trim it into slices using an existing face, however I'm experiencing some problems.
1. Whenever I mix C and C++/Journal code, object data seems to get unloaded in the background. E.g. I pull the data of a DatumAxis, then make a C API call and afterwards the pointer is not NULL, but I get an exception accessing the Origin or Direction properties.
2. I get "update undo happened" errors and cannot identify why. However, what is more important, I noticed that when an exception is thrown, even though I catch it I cannot successfully add previously creates objects to the delete list anymore. That is, I can add them, but they won't be deleted.
Fixing these two issues will probably fix the others as well, so if anyone has advice on how to tackle these I'd be most grateful, already spent quite a few hours with these issues...
Regards,
Dennis
Hello,
I have tried to use the uc1613 API Function.
With below code I want to be able to change 2 string values. Unfortunately I get a strange Output.
For instance, if I Change the first string value on running code
the function should return the new string value with ca6(0). Strange is, that ca6(0) is empty and ca6(1) Returns the new string value. How can I output the Change of the second string value? Ca6(2) is not possible..
What is the meaning behind the ip7 value? Why can I Input a range of Integers, what is the difference?
Does anybody know this function and can help me?
getStrings2("abcd", "efgh")
Function getStrings2(ByVal string1 As String, string2 As String)
Dim cp1 As String = "Choose"
Dim cp2() As String = {string1, string2}
Dim ip3 As Integer = 2 'less or equal to 14
Dim ia4() As Integer = {0,0} 'Integer value
Dim ra5() As Double = {0,0} 'Double value
Dim ca6() As String = {"pt","ut"} 'String value
Dim ip7() As Integer = {300, 300}
Dim resp2 As Integer
ufs.Ui.LockUgAccess(UFConstants.UF_UI_FROM_CUSTOM)
resp2 = ufs.Ui.GetInputValues(cp1, cp2, ip3, ia4, ra5, ca6, ip7) 'uc1613
'ip7 = 100-199 - Indicates an integer value, which will be returned in ia4[]
'ip7 = 200-299 - Indicates a double value which will be returned in ra5[]
'ip7 = 300-399 - Indicates a character string value which will be returned in ca6[]
ufs.Ui.UnlockUgAccess(UFConstants.UF_UI_FROM_CUSTOM)
string_val1 = ca6(0)
string_val2 = ca6(1)
Return resp2

Hello !
in VB Journaling, is it possible to create an '' expression '' in a component from an assembly?
The selection mode is the tag of the part or the name of the part in my assembly.
I found in your examples and on Gtac that to create an expression, the part must be workpart.
In fact, how to associate a part tag or its name with an active workpart or make a work part from a tag or a name of part in the assembly?
In fact, from an assembly, i want to copy the value of an expression to the value of the same expresssion but in another part in an assembly.
Example:
I want to copy the Lenght value of part "A" to the "Lenght" value of part "B". Everything must be done from an assembly. Now, in my code, I am able to have the Tag or the name of each of the two parts.
Best Regards!
