NX 7.5 Diameter dimesion in revolved sketch
(OP)
Hello guys.
I'm new in NX and need some help to get my designs better in it.
I'm trying to create a diameter dimension (diameter value) when I do a revolve feature using the center line (reference line) as shown in the attached image.
I used to do that in a simply way in ProE by clicking in the point (line end), in the center line and in the point again, but I can't do something like this in NX.
Is it possible to do that or the only way is to put the value divided by 2?
Thanks!

Now I realized that is not possible to do it in a "natural" way in NX. But no problem. I'll get used to it.

I understand what you mean.
My idea is to use this dimension in the drawing whit the "Feature Parameter", thats why I want to put the "final" dimension.
At least I think the Feature Parameter is the tool to take de model dimension in the drawing.
If there is another way or another tool to do that, please tell me.
I don't want to compare NX to ProE all the time, but there I use the command "Show/Erase" to bring the sketch dimensions to the drawing "automatically".
Sorry for the basic questions.
