1.2.1 Roles 角色的概念
NX runs a streamlined user interface based on users' experience level, industry, or company specific criteria. This streamlined user interface is called a Role.
NX根据用户的经验水平、行业或者公司标准提供了一种先进的界面控制方式---角色。
Use Roles to simplify the NX user interface so that only the tools necessary for each of the main tasks appear. 使用角色可以简化NX的用户界面，因此该界面可以仅保留你当前任务所需要的命令。
When you first start NX you are, by default, in the Essentials (Recommended) Role . The Essentials roles contain a basic set of functionality that best suits a novice or occasional user.
在你第一次启动NX时，系统默认的使用的角色为‘基本功能’角色。基本功能的角色包括了一些常用命令，适合新手用户或临时用户。

To do this, access the Customize dialog box. (Tools→Customize→Roles tab). Click the “Load” button and select the desired *.mtx file.
进入自定义对话框（工具---定制----角色选项卡）。单击加载按钮，选择角色文件（扩展名为“ *.mtx ”）
九：
1.3.1 Templates 模板
When creating a new part file you can first select a template. Templates contain preset preferences and data objects. A part created from a template will have a copy of all the objects in the template part, and it will inherit all of its settings.
Use the tabs at the top of the New dialog box to select your desired set of template files (Model, Drawing, Simulation, or Manufacturing). Model Drawing Simulation Manufacturing These templates have different contents and start one of several applications. These templates start the Drafting application; some use the Master Model concept and create an assembly part file for the drawing. These templates start either the Simulation or FEM application. These templates help you create CAM Express setups, a general setup, or a blank.
NX generates a default name and location for the new file based on customer default settings for each template type. If you do not want to use the default name and location, you can change them before you begin work on the part, or you can do so when you save the part for the first time
When a part is created from a template NX will start the appropriate application based on the selected template. Note:
To create your own template refer to the NX 6 Help Library for more information on this. 1.3.2 Save options
When you make a change to a part, the word \"Modified\" appears in the title bar to indicate that changes have been made to the part, yet the original has not been saved over.
After a part is saved, the Status line will say \"Part file saved\File→Save As allows you to save the current part under a different name and/or in a different directory. When you select Save As, a file selection dialog box asks for the new name and location.
The name and location must be unique within the current directory. If you specify a name that already exists, an error message will display. Note:
