NX6 SKETCHER

[barn_T]

I sifted through a few discussions and found that by default the tilt/spin/roll option is turned off when entering sketcher. After a recent upgrade Vista 64 bit and NX6, this was the first time that I encountered this situation. It never did this in NX4 or 5. Is there a setting to disable this from occuring.

Dear barn_T,

Under the 'Options' Menu in the '3Dconnexion Control Panel', make sure you have 'Automatically Save Configurations' checked on. When in 'Sketch Mode', adjust your settings to your liking, open the 'Button Mapping Editor' and 'Save'. You may also save custom configurations for your Sketch Mode.

Sincerely,
Bryan

Thanks for your reply. For some reason my the 'Button Mapping Editor' , 'Device Settings' and 'Help' buttons are not active while in sketch mode. They are there, but I cannot select them. I opened them before I went into my sketch, then tried to save, still doesn't work.

I have the same issue as described by barn_T. When entering the sketcher on NX4, the til/spin/roll functionality has been disabled. I can open the 3Dconnexion Control Panel and turn it back on and all is fine--while I am in the sketcher. Once I close out of sketcher and return, the problem reasserts.

This happens regardless of how I save or autosave the settings.

Pls advise.
Thx
