Newbie Question - Max X, Y, or Z value of a curve
Newbie Question - Max X, Y, or Z value of a curve
(OP)
I have complex spline. In my WCS plane, is it possible to get the furthest X point value of this spline. I know this can be done in Catia, but uncertain how to accomplish this in UG.
Thanks,

go to Tools->Expressions, then add a "geometric expression"->distance->first entity - point - endpoint-> pick the endpoint of your spline at Xmax; second entity - datum plane-> pick the datum plane normal to X.
This measure is a feature: you then can find it both in the Part Navigator and in the Expressions list as a parameter.
I don't know if this can apply for you...

Try analysis distance pic the plane subfunction Y-Z plane (which means it is flat to the x plane)and the pic the spline. I think it gives you two a max and a min distance to the plane. Let me know if it works.

But if I wanted to link somethig other to this measure, would then it be necessary to use the "expression->geometric expression->distance" method, or is there anyway something simpler in order for this measure to "stay" in memory and be re-used by some feature?
