Point Creating in Siemens NX
For example, we selected an edge of the geometry to place our point as shown by the blue arrow. Also, you can enter your X, Y, and Z coordinates according to the selected reference to place your point in the blue box in Siemens NX®. You could finish your creating points Siemens NX® by clicking on the OK or Apply buttons as shown by the green box.
Finally, our point is created as shown by the green arrow above.
