Slope of lines: Created from points at Basic Diameters

Team,

I'm having trouble with Slope of lines created from points at Basic diameters. The picture shows 4 points ( E,F,G AND H ) all located on Basic diameters. The slope call out appears to be asking slope of each line to Datum -A-, which is the top plane, Z axis of part. I have taken these points at the specified basic diameters, created lines from these points, but the results are 0.297 inches. I know I'm doing something wrong.
Any help is appreciated. Will provide more info if needed.
Greg.

I am not measuring from CAD, and when I try to install a CAD (step file) file, it tells me that the version is newer than mine.

that does not 'compute'. STEP (and IGES) are pretty much 'generic' cad files. IF you are trying to add an existing PCDMIS.CAD file that was made from STEP file, and it was done in a new version, then you would get that error. You should be able to IMPORT the original STEP file without any issue. I can import STEP (and IGES) files that were exported from 2022 CAD packages in Pcdmis V3.7 (almost 20 years old) without any issues.
