Dimension driven by equation

Dimension driven by equation

Dimension driven by equation

(OP)
When I try to change the value of a fillet I get the following message.

The dimension cannot be changed because it is driven by equation 1. Please suppress the equation before changing the dimension value.

How do I find the equation?

RE: Dimension driven by equation

In the Feature Manager you should see the Σ symbol with Equations next to it. RMB click on it and select Edit Equation to list all equations in the part. You will then have to examine each one to find the referenced fillet.

When creating equations it is helpful to use the Comments column to give a description of what the equation is for.
