How to transfer XOR model, which is applied Boolean operation, to UGS NX
CAD system has own kernel and specific interface. So, sometimes, liveTransfer may not perfectly forward a redesigned data to CAD system because of the difference between Rapidform and CAD system.
Of cause, if liveTransfer cannot perfectly forward all information, you can model in CAD [...]



How to Edit Splines in SolidWorks/UGS/ProE

By Mike Tsang • Aug 22nd, 2008 • Category: Tech Tips, XOR

Problem
After you transfer splines (2D and 3D) that are used for, say, a Lofted Surface, you may want to edit the control points of the splines to do design changes. This document explains how to edit splines in each CAD system.

Solution in SolidWorks
1. Click RMB on a 3D sketch profile/entity in the [...]



IGES Import options in UG NX

By Som Valliyappan • May 13th, 2008 • Category: Tech Tips

If you’re importing reverse engineered models into UG NX via IGES, there are some settings you’ll want to pay attention to.  (Note: we recommend using XOR’s liveTransfer tool when possible, rather than IGES files)
Problem
When you import an entity in IGES format from Rapidform, it may import into NX with many split bodies even when you export it as [...]
