Opening a NX file

Do the following to convert models from the NX format:

  1. Start the Open or Insert from File command.
  2. In the file selection box, under Files of type, select Unigraphics file (*.prt).
  3. Select the file you want to open.
  4. Select the Options button to open the NX Conversion Options dialog box and set the parameters controlling the conversion process as you like.
  5. Select the Open button to open the file (no preview is available for NX files: the file icon will not be displayed in the preview frame).

When you open a NX file, a log file of the conversion is created in the same directory of the file you opened. You are also enabled to store the log file in a specific path by setting the relevant parameters in the Log File category of the NX Conversion Options.
