Dimension Roundoff problem in NX-6
Dimension Roundoff problem in NX-6
(OP)
I have created hole with diameter .1875.
I need to show this dimension in drafting as .188.
While using the callout dimension is coming as .187.
While using the dimension option this is coming as .188
Sometimes only we are facing this problem.
Any solution is there for this problem

To the toolmaker, your nice little cartoon drawing of your glass looks cool, but your solid model sucks. Do you want me to fix it, or are you going to take all week to get it back to me so I can get some work done?

Actually i am facing this problem while linking the hole diametre expression from model file to drawing file.

Is your whole in modeling .1874999, instead of .187500.
Rounding both to 4 places would be .1875.
Rounding to 3 places, you get .187 and .188.

Now if you would like to make sure the an expression is properly 'rounded' you could modify the value used in the note as follows...
dia=(Round((Hole_Dimension_Test::p82)*1000 ))/1000
...and then reference the 'dia' Expression in your note.
