True Position in 3 axis???

Ok, I have read the post regarding this so called argument that my boss and I got into today. He told me that you cannot measure true position in 3 axis, as I told him he was wrong. I know it depends on the way the FCF calls it out, but I tried to explain to him that it is possible to measure TP in 3 axis.
I have seen the formulas, so I know it's possible. I just wish I could get one of you gurus to reply back explaining that it is possible and why. I see the picture but he does not. I do not like to get into pissing matches with upper management, but I have learned a h**ll of alot from you guys, and I know this is possible. So if one of you fine gentleman can back me up on this, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you very much.
Now I am going to get a cold beer.Smiley

  • Hmm... Are you absolutely sure that this is to be treated as a 3-dimensional true position?
    I'm getting a feeling that it might not be the case at all.

    A picture/sketch of the drawing and the callout would be great.

    Also, the legacy TP should be able to calculate 3D TP by checking all three axis (X, Y, Z).
