Feature name equal to it's DEV.

This has come in very handy for me. I've been giving my Features a name equaly to there DEV.

ASSIGN/V444 = ABS(LOC3.Y.DEV)
V444 =FEAT/POINT,RECT
THEO/0,-15,0,-0.7071068,0.7071068,0
ACTL/0,-15,0,-0.7071068,0.7071068,0
CONSTR/POINT,INT,LIN002YCIR5,LIN003YCIR5
ASSIGN/V333 = ABS(LOC3.X.DEV)
V333 =FEAT/POINT,RECT
THEO/-20,0,0,0.7071068,-0.7071068,0
ACTL/20,0,0,0.7071068,0.7071068,0
CONSTR/POINT,INT,LIN002CIR5,LIN003CIR5

By creating a feature at 10 times the Dev. in X and another at 10 times the Dev. in Y and naming each by their Dev. The operator can adjust their machine without me holding their hand. I just give them a print out of the graphics and the amount they need to move is showen in the direction they need to go. Ive tried the DIMINFO in the graphics before and they go the wrong way to often using plus or minus. This seems to work better at least for me.
