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 SetRefCsys steps. You cannot use Measured Lines as references for Construct steps.
