HD3D tools
HD3D is a technology that lets you quickly find and interpret information about your product or design.
HD3D turns data which can be hidden or hard to find, into knowledge that you can immediately access
and act upon, thereby expediting the design process.
This is achieved by overlaying the information onto the 3D design using tags and view styles. In addition,
visually-engaging user interface displays are also provided to help navigate the information that is
presented in the graphics window.
Different HD3D tools are provided to let you display and interact with information directly on the 3D
model.
You can:
Access the HD3D tools from the HD3D Tool Manager on the Resource bar.
1. Visual Reporting tool
2. Check-Mate tool
3. Product Template Studio tool
4. Requirements Validation tool
5. Issue Management tool
Activate more than one HD3D tool at a time.
View and interact with tags in the graphics window.
Tags identify objects for which an HD3D tool has information. Check-Mate tags identify areas with
problems or check result information. Visual Reporting tags appear as color wheels.
Control how you view tags and other information inside the 3D model using the See-Thru display
styles.
Use visual reporting to get a visual report of information on the model.
For example, you can color code components to display their load state. In the following graphic,
components are partially loaded and
components are fully loaded.
Display information in different styles in the HD3D dialog box.
For example, to scroll through thumbnails to find the items you want, use the Flow List+Tree view
style in the Check-Mate tool.
When you first activate an HD3D tool, the view styles are shown in the tool's dialog box. You can
also display the tool's results in its own separate window.
Set preferences for the HD3D tools using the HD3D Tools dialog box.
You can use the HD3D tools to interact visually with information presented in the graphics window that
may previously have been presented in dialog box lists and information reports.

Applications, task environments, and the 'No Part' state
NX is an integrated suite of CAD/CAM/CAE applications developed to support a variety of major
workflows. You can design products, build assemblies, produce drawings, develop tool paths, as well as
perform analysis and simulation studies.
NX uses three work area concepts called the No Part state, Applications, and Task environments.
No Part state
When no file is open, the software is in the No Part state. You cannot choose an application until you
either create or open a file.
Applications
An application in NX is designed to provide process-specific functionality. For example, you can design
products in the Modeling application, create a drawing in the Drafting application, create a tool path in the
Manufacturing application and so on. You enter an application when you create a new file from an
application specific template. For example, if you select a Model template, the file opens in the Modeling
application. You can always change the application you want to work in. When you open a saved file, it
opens in the application in which the file was last saved. Your access to the NX applications depends on
the licenses you buy. NX applications can be licensed either individually or in bundles.
Task environments
Some applications provide access to sub-applications called task environments. For example, from the
Modeling application you can enter the Sketcher task environment. This task environment is specific to
creating constraint-based 2D curves. When you exit the Sketcher task environment, the software
automatically returns to the Modeling application.

Saving favorite versions of dialog boxes
Use the Save Favorite and Save Favorite As commands to save a single or multiple versions of a
command dialog box. If there are specific values and layouts of a dialog that you use frequently, for
instance if you consistently expand or collapse certain groups, then you can set up the dialog box as you
frequently use it, and save it as a favorite. This saves you from re-entering values for often-used cases.
You can:
Save multiple versions of the same command.
Use the saved favorite in current and future NX sessions.
Access the saved favorite from the role that you created it in. The saved favorite is added to the role
that you save it in.
Open the saved favorite in existing commands.
For example, you can customize the Extrude command to create a new layout by displaying only the
Section and Direction groups and hiding all the other groups in the Extrude dialog box.
Add the saved favorite to the Ribbon bar for easy and direct access.
For example, you can load the customized version of the Extrude command to the Home tab.
You can also click Dialog Options
on the dialog box title bar to see all the Favorites options, or rightclick the dialog box title bar to access the shortcut menu.
