Summary


Details

After upgrading to NX 12.0, when plotting a drawing containing points, those points are much thicker than in previous versions, it is sometimes not possible to view them properly if they are close to one another.

The same object color and thickness parameters are used in the new NX version as in previous ones.




Solution

The point marker was redesigned in NX12 to improve clarity, it is not longer displayed as simple line segments.

Set the following customer default parameters in order to plot the points in same manner as in previous NX versions :
File -> Utilities -> Customer Defaults -> Gateway -> Plotting -> General -> Marker Support (On)
