I see that there is a lot of out of the box customization options for various dialog boxes in NX6. There is not however the functionality I am looking for.
I would like to do one of the following things
Make a displayed field longer to I can see more of the entry
Change what the field displays
or add another field underneath the existing one that displays the alternate property
I am adding tools to the CAM tool library and want to keep using ugs libref system.
In the operation dialog box the libref for a tool is displayed after it is selected but it means little to the programmers. it is a something like "ugti0201_011".
The description follows it "End Mill 1/4" but it is only partially visible in the displayed field. The programmers want to see the description not the libref. I want to make the visible length of the field longer, change the field to display the description or add a separate field that will display the description. I prefer not to change libref to descriptive strings
I think this is going to require programming.
