[Lu...] Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 Hello, I am very confused what is going on with this profile characteristic. After I finish running the program, if i click on the characteristic for a line profile, it reads very far out of tolerance. So I close out of the characteristic, and highlight it in the menu. When I deselect the characteristic, then highlight the characteristic again (without rerunning the program, only thing I do is click the characteristic) it changes from red to green. The only thing i have done between taking the 2 images, is unhighlight the profile characteristic, then click on it once again. After a second it will then change to green. Afterward if I then open the characteristic, it will return to red and show .364 out of tolerance (inches, not metric) I an very new to using curves and line paths, so it is likely i have just done something long along the way, but i have no idea what this could be, i dont even rerun the check and it changes from out of tolerance to in tolerance, and the displayed min-max values would be within tolerance. Any help is appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Lu...] Posted October 3 Author Share Posted October 3 Update, I reran the part and it no longer will show green, but when I go into cad-evaluation it looks normal, But then once i change the magnification by one (note the magnification changing from one to two in the top left corner of the images) it all falls apart. only thing i changed between the 2 images is moving the displayed magnification from one to two.

[Ma...] Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 I would blame features used in profile alignment. Fill circle for third one - at least this is what i think. If it's small part, then using mag at 2 can be that large - i use usually 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Lu...] Posted October 9 Author Share Posted October 9 Fixed, i believe it was because of the "circle-startCS-DatumB" feature. I had the nominals of that feature done with a formula since the part can be placed in multiple locations along a vise. Since that feature has formula nominals, made a copy of that feature with the correct nominal location, and use the new feature for datum b instead of the first one i made. The startcs feature is now only being used for the starting coordinate system, and the 2nd time it picks up that feature will be the feature used for datum b. Its a bit slower now but at least im getting better numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
