New GDT Position - Single direction

[[Sh...]]

Does anyone now how to achieve a single location in the new true positions similar to the old method shown below?  I'm using a theoretical circle for a symmetrical slot for MMC purposes.

Hey Shawn,

 

You'll have to do some testing on this, but I think you can accomplish this by:

1. Setting the dropdown next to "Tolerance" to parallel (it will appear as blank when you click out of it, that's expected)

2. Click on the second tab above the datum reference frame (it will have a "!" icon when you first switch it to parallel), select "Fixed Plane" on the options presented.

3. When you select "Fixed Plane", an area below should pop up. Select the dropdown to "Parallel" and select the space axis in the direction you want to measure it.

 

I hope that gets you on the right path.

Thank you Kyle.  I happened to forget about this post and ended up figuring out the exact solution you've proposed.  It works when you use the Fixed Plane option and switch to the button with the "X" and manipulate the vector the feature is in.

Me, watching from a distance:

"wow, now I don't have to figure that out on my own."

Thanks, Shawn and Kyle.
