The ability to chain curves, when selecting WEDM geometry, has changed from NX10 to NX12.
Solution
To Demonstrate the Solution:
Step 1: Open the wire_edm.prt from the UGII_CAM_TEMPLATE_PART_ENGLISH_DIR.
Step 2: Do a SaveAs on the part and name it: my_wireedm_chain_curve.prt
Step 3: Go to the Manufacturing Application.
Step 4: Select PROGRAM from the Program Order View.
Step 5: Select "Create Operation" from the "Insert" group.
Step 6: With the "Type" set to "wire_edm" and the "Operation Subtype" set to "Internal Trim" (see image below).
Step 7: Select the "Location" settings as seen above and select "OK".
Step 8: Select the "Select or Edit the Geometry" (see image below).
Step 9: With 2 Axis Selected...change the "Selection Method" to "Curves" (see image below).
Step 10: Select "More" from the "Top Border Bar" (see image below).
Step 11: Check "Chain Between" (see image below) and select "Close".
Note: Notice that the selection intent has changed from "Single Curve" to "Connected Curves".
Note: The "Cue Line" states: "Select start curve or edge of connected chain"
Step 12: Select the "Start Curve" as indicated in the image below.
Note: The "Cue Line" states: "Select end curve or edge of connected chain"
Step13: Select the "End Curve" as indicated in the image below.
Note: The curves/edges are chained as desired.
