Summary
Details
How to start MCD player on a system where NX is fully installed? You might not find the MCD payer under the NX program group.
Solution
You can start a regular NX install as MCD player by editing the startup switch in the shortcut. Copy an existing shortcut of NX, and change the startup switch from -NX or -mechatronics into:
ugraf.exe -mechatronicsplayer
1. Copy and Edit existing shortcut:
2. Edit name (General tab) and target: When you start via the new shortcut (with ugraf.exe -mechatronicsplayer), then a MCDplayer is started.
Note: Be aware --> MCD Player needs a specific "player" license, and does not work with the normal MCD or NX license.
