Check Number of Hits Constructed Feature

By any chance is there an easy way to check the number of hits on a constructed feature like a cylinder? I just want to verify that my code worked:

CYL1 =FEAT/CYLINDER,CARTESIAN,OUT,LEAST_SQR,NO
THEO/<-1.564,0,0>,<1,0,0>,0.695,0.324
ACTL/<-1.564,0,0>,<1,0,0>,0.695,0.324
CONSTR/CYLINDER,BF,CIR14.HIT[1..CIR14.NUMHITS],CIR51.HIT[1..CIR14.NUMHITS],CIR52.HIT[1..CIR14.NUMHITS],CIR53.HIT[1..CIR53.NUMHITS],,

I'm taking 4 circles and constructing a cylinder. The cylinder is the center of a long shaft so I can't get all the way around the part: I have to use two tip angles.​

    CONSTR/CYLINDER,BF,CIR14.HIT[..],CIR51.HIT[..],CIR52.HIT[..],CIR53.HIT[..],, should work also...​



    Oh nice! Does that pull all the hit points from the feature? Will this work in all versions of PC-DMIS?

    The code in my original post was given to me at a PC-DMIS Informational Luncheon at the Hexagon Rhode Island luncheon. It seems to work well but maybe they told me the hard way to do it.
