For an explanation why I was making content on NX, please read the following: www.mcaeconsulting.com/single-post/why-am-i-posting-nx-videos-on-a-creo-parametric-channel This video is not meant to be the be-all and end-all of how to do stuff. It was a private video that I made for my previous company as we were switching CAD packages. I made it public after a third of us were laid off.
In the past by the icon of the files it was possible to identify what kind of file it was. There was one icon for assembly, one for part another for drawing and so on but Siemens could screwed it up. Congrats for the video. It seems to me you studied a lot about the software.
I was perplexed that there was no way to identify the file type, either inside or outside the software. There's no filter in the File Open dialog box. SolidWorks has a nice filter to identify the top level assemblies in a given folder. If you use Windchill for PDM, parts and assemblies have the same icon. If I remember correctly, Windchill could distinguish NX drawings, even though they are .prt files as well. I brought up with our NX proponents that we would have to change our part numbering system to include the file type, which would have sucked. But alas, we never got far enough to address it, and most likely the company never will.
@@CADPLMGuy No, believe me there is one way to identify the file type outside the software that I know. Inside the folder where your parts are saved, right mouse click on a blank area, then click on Group by then click on more, scroll down the list options and select NX Part Type, and mark it, click ok and close the window. Once again right mouse click on an blank area then click on Sort By and again NX Part type. This is is way.
I am not familiar enough with NX to answer that question. I made this video for internal use for a company that was switching from SolidWorks to NX. When we got laid off, I made the video public.

Cool video. I have been using CREO Parametric for 10 years. Now the company is migrating to NX.
Good luck with that.

Hello , what is similar option for " Configuration " in NX as like in Solidworks?
