Good morning. My part has a cone (lets say it's a countersink). The print calls for a gage ball to be placed into the countersink, then the location of the top of the gage ball is to be measured. How would I replicate this in PC-DMIS? I've probed my cone, obviously. Now I'm stuck...I want to construct a sphere with a set diameter to mate with the countersink.
It might be possible with the "construct circle from two lines/tangent lines". Scan a line on each side of the countersink, create a circle touching the lines with a set diameter. Workplane dependent.

I seem to recall that the lines each have to be taken in a specific direction. I can't recall if they have to both point to their intersection or both point away from the intersection
