Constructed Feature Nominals Changing

Some of you have posted about Angle nominal's changing. Are any of you seeing any other constructed feature nominal's change? BTW - the "+0" does not work for me unless I put the whole formula in parenthesis. Nominal looks like this (.6875+0), if I do not use parenthesis it will still change. This is for a constructed intersection point created from two lines within a "V" shaped groove scan dimensioned in 2D to the origin.
  • If a bestfitted alignment is using these features, make sure the "iterate and re-pierce CAD" is turned off in the alignment.

    Basic, 3-2-1, no best fit. v shaped linear open scan. Constructed lines from the scn to measure the angle and the location of the center of the v shape.

  • There is CAD, suppressed for sharing. Scan has some noise so you can see odd hits not on the v shape. very small feature, very small probe.
