Has anyone had problems with Xact Measure TP dims? I have various parts with MMC on the DF as well as the Datums. As may be expected the DF and the datums all have different size tolerances. When setting up the dimension I tolerance them correctly, but once created the datum tolerances default to the DF tolerance. I have assigned variables for tolerances with little success. In fact I can type in the correct tolerance right into the dimension in the edit window and.. pfft... it reverts back to the DF tol. I am attempting to use this "improved" method because the hexagoon's say that legacy TP dims don't account for MMC on the datums correctly. WTF!
I am running V4.2mr2, but I have seen this in 4.1 and 4.2mr1.
Matt- thats a good one when you have a VC on the DF only. Unfortunately, I have VCs on the datums as well which requires a qausi BF on the datums limited to there individual tolerances. If I had a coding solution for that I would be a much better programmer than I am.
James- thanks for the tip. On a side note, do you think it reports the deviation for the set when dimensioning a group?
