Measure

Measure

(OP)
Hi,

I am trying to measure a thin square pad. In the plan view  this pad has filleted corners. I need to measure the radius to radius (circumferance edges) diagonally. I tried the measure command and could not measure from this. It gives center to center only.

Can some body pl help.
Thanks

RE: Measure

In the Measure Between dialog select "Surface Only" for both selections.  Then select the Customize button, another dialog will come up.  Check the "Maximum Distance from 1 to 2"  Now select the two opposing surfaces.  You should get the measure you want.
