Upgraded atomizer environment from Python 3.10 to 3.11 to match NX2412's
Python version, enabling seamless NXOpen module import for development.
Changes:
- Upgraded atomizer conda environment to Python 3.11.14
- Added nxopen.pth to site-packages pointing to NX2412 Python modules
- Updated VSCode stub path from Simcenter3D to NX2412
- Verified NXOpen import works successfully in atomizer environment
Configuration:
- Python version: 3.11.14 (matches NX2412)
- NXOpen path: C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX2412\NXBIN\python
- Stub path: C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX2412\UGOPEN\pythonStubs
Benefits:
- NXOpen modules can now be imported directly in Python scripts
- No version conflicts between atomizer and NX
- Seamless development workflow for NXOpen code
- Full intellisense support with type hints and documentation
Documentation Updated:
- Added Python 3.11 requirement to NXOPEN_INTELLISENSE_SETUP.md
- Added Step 0: Python version check
- Added Step 1: NXOpen path setup with .pth file
- Updated all paths to use NX2412 instead of Simcenter3D_2412
Testing:
- Verified: import NXOpen successful
- Verified: NXOpen.__file__ points to correct location
- Ready for use in optimization workflows
This completes the NXOpen integration foundation for Atomizer.

Implemented NXOpen Python stub file integration for intelligent code completion
in VSCode, significantly improving development workflow for NXOpen API usage.
Features Added:
- VSCode configuration for Pylance with NXOpen stub files
- Test script to verify intellisense functionality
- Comprehensive setup documentation with examples
- Updated development guidance with completed milestone
Configuration:
- Stub path: C:\Program Files\Siemens\Simcenter3D_2412\ugopen\pythonStubs
- Type checking mode: basic (balances help vs. false positives)
- Covers all NXOpen modules: Session, Part, CAE, Assemblies, etc.
Benefits:
- Autocomplete for NXOpen classes, methods, and properties
- Inline documentation and parameter type hints
- Faster development with reduced API lookup time
- Better LLM-assisted coding with visible API structure
- Catch type errors before runtime
Files:
- .vscode/settings.json - VSCode Pylance configuration
- tests/test_nxopen_intellisense.py - Verification test script
- docs/NXOPEN_INTELLISENSE_SETUP.md - Complete setup guide
- DEVELOPMENT_GUIDANCE.md - Updated with completion status
Testing:
- Stub files verified in NX 2412 installation
- Test script created with comprehensive examples
- Documentation includes troubleshooting guide
Next Steps:
- Research authenticated Siemens documentation access
- Investigate documentation scraping for LLM knowledge base
- Enable LLM to reference NXOpen API during code generation
This is Step 1 of NXOpen integration strategy outlined in DEVELOPMENT_GUIDANCE.md.
