How to measure hole on an angle.

Autoing the circle gives me a ellipse.

What's the best way about this? I need diameter and true position.

  • Tried what you said with vectors with surface point, however doesn't look like It'll know the proper diameter.

    Also wouldn't let me adjust z-values, I'm guessing due to circles being 2-d features?
  • You cannot adjust the Z value with an auto-feature however you can with a 'measured' feature.
    place your cursor in the edit window and start typing 'measured', make sure to change from point to circle where the blue text exists. Duplicate the XYZ/IJK/Size that your auto-feature showed. now you can equally space your hits and then adjust the individual z locations. I would continue to select 'no' about updating the feature as you edit the z heights.
