- [Instructor] NX has several navigators to help you
navigate through your data.
Now, here you have what's called an assembly navigator.
We don't have an assembly open,
but this allows you to see
what's contained within the assembly.
So, this is gonna show you additional components
that you may have.
This is a constraint navigator.
This is for constraints within the assembly.
You'll see this again in a bit.
We'll go down to the part navigator.
The part navigator is basically the model history.
All that is within the model
that you've used to design the part
is contained in the model navigator.
You can see all the features here.
If you look at some of the additional functionality
within the navigator,
you can right mouse click on a feature,
you have your hide, show, edit parameters,
edit with rollback, all sorts of stuff here,
making current features, you can suppress/unsuppress things.
You also have additional panels down below,
for example like details.
If you click on a sketch with parameters
or a feature with parameters,
it'll show you what those parameters are down here.
Let me go ahead and close that out.
So, this is basically where
you're gonna be spending most of your time,
within that part navigator.
Also, you have the reuse library.
This is a library of 2D sections that you may use
to sweep along guides.
You may use the fastener configurator here.
There's all sorts of predefined shapes as well
that you can use.
This is just a navigator for some inspection tools
that Siemens has and NX has.
Here is a web browser,
and then we also have history.
So, this history you'll see here
has basically entries that you maybe opened yesterday,
the past week, so on and so forth.
And then additional navigators you have.
Process studio, this is for people using simulation,
motion, analysis, that type of thing.
So you can do durability wizards, stress wizards,
all sorts of stuff that's in here.
And then the last one that we have now is roles.
These are the roles that I created for myself.
Again, I have other roles,
predefined roles under content.
Role advanced is basically the default role
that I want everyone to use.
Make sure you're using that advanced roles.
This is gonna really help you out,
give you all the tools.
It's easier to find and navigate through.
You may actually end up
with role essentials when you first start,
just as a warning.
So, just go back in and verify you're using role advanced.
Also, your roles may be different
based off of where you're working.
Some OEMs have roles set up for each individual groups,
and you may see something different
as far as content, presentation, any user roles
that you have inside of those navigators.
