Bleed Hole can not be dimensioned in Drawing
Bleed Hole can not be dimensioned in Drawing
(OP)
Ok, I created a model and made a drawing from it. It had a bleed hole in it. All was well. Then I created a second model and it also had a bleed hole in it, but slightly different. I imported two views of the new part and now when I try and dim the bleed hole I just get then following message:
Selected silhouette cann not be unique identifiedfor curret operation. Please reate a split line by using splitline operation with the shilhoutette operation.
Why am I getting this in the second model ONLY? I have tried replacing the bleed hole and I still get this message. Why did it work in the first model? What does this error mean? Thank you in advance to anyone who helps out here.

It's to hard to say what the issue is without seeing this. You should send this to your VAR. So they can help you with this issue further and you can send them your files for them to see what it is you are talking about.

Another possibility, is the hole on a flat, cylindrical, or curved face? On cylindrical and curved surfaces, the hole edge would be a spline and not a circular edge and dimensioning could be difficult. In those cases I usually Insert the model dimensions or create an associative sketch circle in the drawing view contrained to the edge.
