Hello All,
Can someone tell me where Measure distance-results display-create line is in NX10?

See the below image...



But that being said, you may have to make sure that the dialog is being displayed in it's (More) option...

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

I can see Create Output Geometry but it's greyed out; before and after measuring.

You have to have the 'Associative' option toggled ON.

Thank you John, I completely missed that. (migrating to 10) I use a distance line quite frequently for extrusion distance and offset face amounts when referencing peaks and valleys of 3-D geometry. It's a pleasant surprise to see the distance line is now associative.
