Xact Measure problem

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.

  • From the left hand side oof the screen you pick your features to be dimensioned and in the FCF you pick your datums. I am picking multiple features from the feature list on the left hand side and only one statistic is being saved. This is incorrect


    Can't one use this approach if stats are not needed?

    I am referring to using the command Insert | Dimension | Simultaneous Evaluation as it pertains to ASME Y14.5M-1994 5.3.6 pg 92. If each feature was dimensioned seperately wouldn't this allow one to output the correct stats while correctly evaluating a part?
