thanks

The evaluation is done at the Characteristic side.

You can have one feature that is attached to multiple Characteristics. Create the Characteristic, add the feature, right click on the feature and set the appropriate evaluation you are looking for.

Also, the 2-point diameter (LP) is not the same as MIC/MCC. The Local-Point diameter is showing you the max/min two opposing points. The MIC/MCC is showing you a circle created from the 3 outer/inner points. The MIC/MCC is the functional size.

Hello everyone, I also have an envelope problem. My client asks me for the envelope but on Calypso 2014 I can't find it. I know it should be in the 2 point diameter but I honestly can't figure it out.

I don’t get it. Choosing the Envelope condition in the 2-point-diameter gives you two evaluations: the Maximum Material envelope diameter and the two-point least diameter (for a hole). That is the max and min your customer wants.

For this wouldn't you just pick the diameter characteristic, and then select the scanned circle, and under evaluation select maximum inscribed element?

Then do the same just changing it to minimum? Why is the 2 point diameter being utilized?

Because right or wrong, there may be no place on the part that the diameter could be measured that would equal the inner or outer tangential circle.

I still am not quite understanding the purpose, can someone give an example of a situation where this is useful? It seems useful but I'm not comprehending at the moment.

For ISO size use two point diameter with envelope condition (Outer tangential) for max material. This should also satisfy rule one of Y14.5 shouldn't it?
