[Ke...] Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I have an I.D. Datum at a Ø1.5732, at 4 equally spaced points along the diameter I have 4 radial cut outs that are supposed to be .016 bigger than the datum diameter. I can't figure out how to measure from my I.D. to these radial cut outs accurately. Attached is a very crude picture, paint skills aren't so great. Any help would be appreciated.cut outs.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ro...] Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 getActual("Circle1").diameter+0.016 You should be able to create a formula where the nominal size of Circle2 is +0.016 than Circle1.fdbbxvcbx.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ke...] Posted October 10, 2019 Author Share Posted October 10, 2019 This is exactly what I was looking for, where do I go to create a formula, Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Ri...] Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 You can also use the caliper tool to measure the max/min distance between the two circles. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ro...] Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Right click on the box and select "Formula..." Copy & paste that bit at the top of my first post into the box as shown. Change Circle1 to whatever your datum circle is called. Click "compute" to make sure everything is working correctly. FYI, Make SURE that whenever creating formulas, if the number you're entering is less than 1, always use a leading zero. (0.016) Otherwise you'll get a stupid err message but it wont tell you whats wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
