Looking at what\u2019s new in managed modes, we\u2019ll be highlighting how these latest enhancements are streamlining your workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s start!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Teamcenter inside of NX<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"529\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/TC-in-NX.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12192\" style=\"object-fit:contain;width:400px;height:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/TC-in-NX.png 529w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/TC-in-NX-300x261.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Ensuring you can use Teamcenter inside of NX is key. This allows all teams to have a place to collaborate on product designs and documents, without an authoring application and helps you utilise Active Workspace. We also know that NX user productivity increases with immediate access to content managed in digital threads and this is why we\u2019ve made enhancements in the June 2025 release. Below are some of the improvements we&#8217;ve made in our continuous release cycle to benefit your Teamcenter and NX collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Show contents of an NX dataset<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We understand the importance of aligning patterns used in Teamcenter with NX. Let\u2019s say as an NX user, you want to verify the list of files that were saved to Teamcenter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s some improvements to help:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>BBOX is a Form (open and view form data)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>NX part file, preview, and true shape (TSO)]<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>View all named references attached to an NX dataset<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the NX dataset and click on NX Properties<ul><li>First table shows the attached Forms<\/li><\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Second table shows the attached Files<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"574\" height=\"488\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/cross-selection.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12193\" style=\"object-fit:contain;width:300px;height:200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/cross-selection.png 574w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/cross-selection-300x255.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 574px) 100vw, 574px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cross-selection enhancements<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the latest release you\u2019re now able to define how you want to use cross-selection when Teamcenter is inside of NX. You will now be able to select the option to automatically expand the ANAV to selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Float as document tab<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We understand the need for simple usability within tabs. You can now undock the resource bar tab and float your current one in a new documents window. This then allows your Teamcenter tab to float independently on a second monitor, separate from the main NX window. The NX document window then appears in the Windows taskbar grouped under the NX icon. This update will make switching between one and another more simplistic and reducing any confusion on designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Smart Discovery<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"574\" height=\"464\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/smart-discovery.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12194\" style=\"object-fit:contain;width:400px;height:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/smart-discovery.png 574w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/smart-discovery-300x243.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 574px) 100vw, 574px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Updates to Smart Discovery allow advanced searching and filtering within large product structure, enabling engineers to focus and work on their areas of interest. This is particularly helpful within the automotive and aerospace industries, where we understand our customers are working with such large-scale models. Having a simple, structured way of filtering will result in saving valuable design time and getting products to market faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Smart Discovery is integrated into NX with a native NX experience giving access to four filter types to define filter recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Proximity (Spatial)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Volume (Spatial)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Partitions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attributes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Design Workset<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"574\" height=\"466\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Design-workset.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12195\" style=\"object-fit:contain;width:400px;height:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Design-workset.png 574w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Design-workset-300x244.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 574px) 100vw, 574px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Design Workset allows you to insert a single or multiple filtered product assembly and locate them relative to one another. In relation to this, we have made some key updates particularly to Design Workset with multi-configuration; meaning the same product assembled into Workset. This is a useful enhancement which now allows you to view the same product revision with different variant rules or effectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Design Workset is the enabler<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Designate one inserted product as primary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other inserted products are secondary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Position inserted products relative to one another<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>User modifies the product marked as primary<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Partitions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"574\" height=\"462\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/partitions.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12197\" style=\"object-fit:contain;width:300px;height:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/partitions.png 574w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/partitions-300x241.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 574px) 100vw, 574px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>For every release of NX, we make our improvements based on feedback from our users, with the goal of constantly improving and streamlining your workflow, thus minimizing issues. This is why we\u2019ve introduced improvements to Partitions. You\u2019re now able to visualize alternative organizations of assembly structures through use of Partitions, regardless of BOM structure. NX is able to identify an auto-populate partition scheme and manages your user experience to minimize issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019re able to apply these partition schemes to an inserted product assembly, a design workset or a design session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Usability enhancements<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ensuring our users have a simplistic and straightforward experience within NX is fundamental to us. We want to make sure that with every release of NX, we\u2019re improving your usability. Let\u2019s take a look at some of the ways we\u2019re continuing to support the best and most streamlined version of your workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>User messaging enhancements<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve listened when you\u2019ve said that as a managed NX user opening an assembly, it would improve your workflow if NX reported the results as the end. The system will now report the information at the conclusion of open, meaning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>NX will stop when the severity is high<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When the severity is not high, the open process continues, and the results are summarized at end<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The user has the responsibility to review the information and take corrective action when appropriate; Failure to comprehend that feedback could impact subsequent operations and save<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Export assembly from Teamcenter<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This enhancement will benefit your workflow for when you want to include the dependent PDF, CGM and JT content, when your NX data is exported from Teamcenter. Please note here though that NX will only export JT\\Direct Model and PDF and CGM datasets attached to the NX dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Change management<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"574\" height=\"499\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/change-management.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12196\" style=\"object-fit:contain;width:400px;height:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/change-management.png 574w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/change-management-300x261.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 574px) 100vw, 574px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Change Management feature package is deployed into your Teamcenter environment. In response to customer feedback, this improvement in the June 2025 release will benefit those who want to use Change Management inside NX where Change Management <strong>is not <\/strong>set as required. This useful enhancement has been made available on the quick access toolbar, and ensures that the icon is visible on the graphics tab. A few other points to note here are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click Active Change Notice to select ECN<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>User can unset the ECN (choose \u201cblank\u201d)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Save Management includes ECN column<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>And that draws our entry to a close!
