What's New in NX

 

 

SWITCHING BETWEEN LINES AND ARCS

A new sketch gesture that is available now in Designcenter NX 2512 is making the ability to switch between lines and arcs in Sketching easier than ever.

 

AXIAL LAYOUT

This will enable the quick creation of cylindrical or conical patterns for your designs, and can be measured within the tool either along the Angle or along the Axis for an easily detailed pattern.

 

BOOLEAN ENHANCEMENT

This works for Unite, Subtract and Intersect, and will let you select or have selected empty Feature Groups on the Part Navigator. With this option, you can switch out bodies created with different features to allow for quick design iterations.
