legacy profile

Is anyone here familiar enough with legacy profile to explain the difference between form only and form and location? I think that form and location locks to the origin, but i am not sure how the form only works. I have a customer who wants to use legacy dimensioning and i am not familiar with it.

  • my final question then is if i have my alignment to A B and C datums, would form only work if my profile is called back to my B and C? my A datum is my Z level and B and C are x rotation and x,y location. I want share a print, but i cant due to security reasons. i could probably post the program though. I dimensioned the profile the way it was called with B and C on the print with exactmeasure and then tried dimensioning the same thing using form only, but non of the best fit options seemed to match my exactmeasure readings.
  • Profile to B and C means that you now treat B as your primary and C as your secondary, and evaluate the profile to this new DRF. Form only is for NO datum called out in the FCF.
