Hi

Another easy question :-) ?

I have a basic dimension on a model. I want to add this into a hole table.

When I add the normal syntax, i.e. &d12 etc, the dimension is inserted into the appropriate cell, but the "basic dimension box" has disappeared.

I tried adding the @[...@] syntax but this doesn't do anything either.

Is the problem that the "basic dimension box is the cell?

Thanks in advance

Dave
 
Dave, I tried too and indeed, the BASIC DIMS does not appear, but if put the @[..@], then is OK.

I'm on old PROE 2001

Problem solved.

I wanted to leave the dimension as a basic, so if the model is interogated, this fact is obvious.

In the table, adding the conventional @[&d12@] doesn't work, but @[@[&d12@]@] does. It appears to be a "double negative" problem.

Cheers

Dave
