"primary point does not lie on secondary axis, tertiary not allowed"

Probing Pete
Having a small hurdle to overcome here, would greatly appreciate a little advice if you got the time.
Profile of a Surface execution scenerio...(dmis cad, not ++)


Primary -A- = Zplus plane (leveled and z origin)
Secondary -B- = Line on Yminus face, edge of zplus (rotated xplus about zplus and y origin)
Tertiary -C- = circle in hole on Yminus face (x origin)

(As Drawing indicates)

Aligned with CAD, Online

Series of points (contour in an area within zplus), as a Feature Set. FCF set up and defined datums accordingly.
When clicking create, Message window appears which states... "primary point does not lie on secondary axis, tertiary not allowed".

Obviously, I need to correct something here, but am unsure of what, and again would greatly appreciate any advice given.
Thank You.

  • Don't you still need to specify Datums? Would Xact 'care' if the selected datums didn't adhere to its rules if it was just using the Current Alignment?

    I don't think you NEED to select datums if you set it to use CURRENT ALIGNMENT, you just won't get any bonus from the datum features. It will act like Legacy (bonus from feature only) but will report like Xact. There may not be any datums shown in the dimension. As I said, I don't use it, but I've read here (and there) that this is an option.
