To Measure a Line
To measure a line, you have to manually select two or more points on a planar surface of the reference part. The Measured Line is created as a best fit through the selected points.
1. Click
Inspect >
Line/Axis. The
MEASUREMENT STEP dialog box opens.
2. Select a plane.
3. Select two or more points on the plane. The system displays the tool path and creates the Measured Line as a best fit through the selected points.
4. Use the Specify Unbnd option in the PTS AND PATH menu to change the form of the DMIS output statement, if needed.
|  Measured Lines can be selected as references for Verify and Set Ref Csys steps. You cannot use Measured Lines as references for Construct steps. |
