Common Datum Between a Cylinder and a Cone

I have this rod that has a datum A cylinder and datum B is center drill. I can create the common datum for a runout tolerance but when I create the runout feature it won't let me because they're 2 different feature types. So I created a generic cylinder out of the cone then PC DMIS didn't like that one feature had surface data and the other one didn't. I then created a generic cylinder out of the measured cylinder and then it would let me make my runout FCF feature. Why can't I make the common datum out of 2 different features?

  • neil.challinor : nice !
    Is there any way to construct the feature corresponding to the datum ?
    I remember the time when the flatness was correctly calculated, but the associated feature was hidden somewhere in the soft
  • The only constructed datum features currently available are the constructed primary datum plane, constructed secondary datum line and constructed tertiary datum point. These were provided to enable users to simulate simple datum reference frames using a traditional alignment. We may consider making the constrained L2 / constrained min/max math options available for other constructions in the future - no set date yet though.
