Generate TruShape (TSO) files (NX)

Procedure

1. In NX, click Assemblies > Site Standards > TruShape tab.

   Note: The use of refined search based on TSO files is optional for spatial searches.

2. Set the cell size and cell units, and click Generate Component Shape Representations on Save.

   TSO files are generated upon every save.

   Note: The default cell size in NX is 0.0 mm. A cell size of 5.0 mm is recommended for initial testing. You can define your own cell size that is best for your design practice. Bear in mind that the smaller the cell size, the longer the proximity search takes.

3. Run the run_tc_publishing_utility.bat utility in the following format to generate TSO files for the existing NX dataset:

   run_tc_publishing_utility.bat -u=%tc_admin_user% -p=%tc_admin_pwd% -g=dba -i="!file!" -publish_tr=yes -record_pa=yes -log="!file!_refile.txt"

   Note: The run_tc_publishing_utility.bat utility is supplied with NX and more information is provided in the Teamcenter Integration for NX documentation in the NX Help.
