Point in expanded view.
Point in expanded view.
(OP)
I am on NX6
I am trying to put a point in an expanded view, for a folded radius dimension, but "point" is greyed out.
Why is that?

RE: Point in expanded view.
As to the "why" question: I think it is just to confuse us!

BTW, with NX 7.5, if you DO decide to expand a drawing view the, 'normal' point function will now work just fine.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
RE: Point in expanded view.
What are the limitations of using a drawing view as a sketch view? For example, can you sketch a spline in a drawing view and then use it for a broken out section boundary? What is the fundamental difference between placing geometry in an expanded view vs. placing the same geometry in a sketch view?
Thanks,

Thanks for the guidance.

I thought I remembered a post like that, but I couldn't find it.
We are working on some huge parts, with large radii, so I better take the best route when doing this type of dimensioning.
