Analysis - measure..... then how do you use it in relations?
(OP)
ive created an arc, which i need the length to use in further relations.
So i have used analysis, measure, add feature.
At which it moves to the model tree.
But how can i USE this measurement in relations?
many thanks

RE: Analysis - measure..... then how do you use it in relations?
The syntax for relating the analysis features is as follows:
parameter_name:FID_analsysis_feature_name
Thus, if you were using the length from Analysis feature "Analysis1" it would be:
length:FID_Analysis1
Hope this helps.

Were did you find this information? I was tring to find this the other night. Can't find much in the PTC online documentatiuon of what you can use in a relation or programs. Is there complete documentation of the syntax/symantics of what can go into a relation?

Perhaps I cheated, but I went through training on Behavioral Modeling and Mechanism Design by Dr. Andreas Vlahinos, President of Advanced Engineering Solutions LLC (www.aes.nu).
Here is a link to the training class on BMX: www.aes.nu/bmx.html.
I highly recommend it!
Also, there are some free tutorials on the web:
PTC Tips and Tricks: Solving Engineering Problems with BMX (www.ptc.com/appserver/it/icm/cda/templat...)
PTC Technical Support Knowledge Base (www.ptc.com/appserver/cs/search/kdb.jsp?...) Note: you must have maintenance to search the knowledge base.
And these from the PTC Customer Care Zone (http://ptc-mss.com):
Please also take a look at the links in the FAQ PTC Pro/ENGINEER and Pro/MECHANICA internet resources (FAQ554-468)
