Deleting Perimeter Dimension - NX9
Deleting Perimeter Dimension - NX9
(OP)
I realise that this has been asked before, but there is not obvious solution in NX9.0 that I can see.
I can see the dimension in the sketch parameters view and expressions outside of sketching (and can edit the length), but I need to delete it completely to allow me to add a different perimeter dimension in the same sketch which includes another 2 lines.
thanks,

RE: Deleting Perimeter Dimension - NX9
The only practical way of deleting a sketch 'Perimeter' dimension is by going to the Edit Parameters dialog, while in the sketch task, where you will be able to select and edit, as well as delete, any sketch dimension, including Perimeters dimensions which normally are not accessible due to they not being displayed in any manner. Now you can access the Edit Parameters dialog while in a sketch in one of two ways; either by going to the Part Navigator, double-clicking the sketch feature and when the dialog opens, select the Perimeter dimension from the list of sketch dimensions and then hit the 'Delete' icon that will now be active in the dialog. Or alternately you can go to...
Menu -> Edit -> Sketch Parameters...
...and the same dialog as above will appear.

This tip got me out of trouble today.
It was definitely not obvious where to find the expression that could be deleted.
