I have the part in the picture and I have to get the true position of the segments as indicated. Datum B is the top plane created across the segments and Datum C is indicated on the picture. I'm usually using the CMM to only compare to file and simple measurements, not familiar with GDT...
Link TO MACRO
I was wondering if the macro in this thread could be modified to only use selected dimensions rather that all dimensions within a print? I don't always want to add inspection numbers to every dimension on a print.

Gotcha, I was thinking I want to keep the original view as well so I was copying, but doesn't matter I just paste it back in both sheets and realign the original view. Thanks, this is more what I was looking for.
well, I can't copy and paste which is what I was originally trying to do of the detail view alone but if I do grab the the parent view as well it does copy and paste. Then I hide the parent view. seems to work unless someone has something better.
I thought I had done this in the past and can't seem to figure out why I can't do it now. Can it be done? I know I can drag a view in the tree and drop it into another print but I want to keep the original view on that print as well. The reason for it is to do a more detailed view in larger...
Doesn't seem to work correctly anymore. Can't create origins from sketched entities or points. What do you do when the part doesn't lend itself to a circle in the center of the part to set your zero to?
setting up a new workstation and was wondering where the files are typically located for my workspace environment including customized toolbars and their locations? If I don't need to go back through it again I'd rather not.
the only way I know how as of right now is select the dimension, select the other tab in the dimension dialog box, uncheck "use document font", click the font button, and then change your font style. I would like to select the dimension and hit a single hot key on the keyboard and have the...
I'm not up to speed on my vbasic but I'd like to have a way of selecting a dimension from my drawing and with a single keystroke have it change to bold italic from it's current attributes. Any help would be appreciated.
I was trying to create a custom material library which had my standard materials I use in designing molds. In this library I used custom properties to fill in the information I wanted from the material like Hardness. I was hoping I could create my model, assign the material to it and then when I...
well that will work if I subtract the part at the assembly level, how about at the part level? I typically build my core and cavity blocks as a multibody part file then export each component into it's own file before building the assembly.
I have a part that I am going to design a mold for and I know that this particular part is going to go through multiple changes and I'm forced to have to start the mold design because of timing. I want to design it from the start where if I get a new model I can replace the existing model and...
I have been to three suppliers of seals in my area and not one of them can get these seals. Can someone tell me where they can be purchased? possibly a link to the manufacturer?
