I have read most of the posts on this site, and they mainly seem to point to the nomials for the actual feature changing... and like most of you say " I have never had DMIS change a nominal ... ever! And if it is changing it on you , you have done somthing wrong!"
I am not talking about it changing a nominal for a feature! I am saying that when i create a dimension, without CAD, I have to tell it what nominal i want for the dimension, bedcause it always picks the wrong one! Then I print a report and all is fine... UNTIL I RUN THE PROGRAM AGAIN! Then, the next time i print the report, all the nominals are different and I have to update them again!
Also tolerances that i put in the angle dimension edit box won't transfer to the report at all.
Workplane is definately not it... but.. this theo. issue is worth looking into. But... I am not sure what to do here. If my measurement is between 2 lines... then my nominal is the distance between them on a given axis... the distance between them is not a feature..so how can i check the theo's on it? Am i supposed to set the theo's for lines 1 and 2 on the axis i want to measure to respected positions to where the distance is the difference between the two of them?
