This should be a quick one for you pros. I have a distance between 2 planes. The max is in tolerance but the min is out. Since using the distance dimension button uses the average, its telling me the feature is in when its not. How do I write a variable for this?
Another option to consider is to construct a Width feature from the two planes and then report a Size dimension. There are quite a few reporting options with size dimensions. With the ASME standard you can choose 'opposed points', which reports two separate dimensions. For external widths, one is the max point to point distance and the other is the min distance. If either is out of tolerance it will be highlighted red on the report.
The reporting looks like this. The top is the Max width. The bottom is the Min width.
The ISO standard offers even more reporting options, but I can't say much about them as I work mainly with American standards.
