Create polyline circle and scan

I need to measure the profile of the shoulder of a counterbore. It's kind of thin.... 1 mm of land on a 35mm diameter bore. How would I go about drawing a polyline on the bore shoulder, 35.5mm in diameter? I want to use the polyline to scan the profile. I'm a total newbie. Trying to learn how to program.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

  • Insert/basic scan/circle/plane.
    You will have to :
    ASSIGN/V1=DEG2RAD(3)
    ASSIGN/V2=COS(V1)
    ASSIGN/V3=SIN(V1)
    Assuming that your alignment is on the detail C x from bottom to top and Z from right to left, create a local alignment with i=V3, j=0 and k=V2, then create a clear point at x= radius of scan,Y=0 and Z=50 f(for example), disable the clear plane in the scan window and try it... repeat the clear point after the scan, and dimension the plane in the previous alignment.
