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.

  • Guys,

    I think you just taught me something. But, can you delve into the subject a little more?

    Let me start by regurgitating what I think I have just read in ASME y14.5 1994. If I have 6 holes that have a True Position of...

    6X DIA 6mm +0.3 -0.00
    |TP|DIA|0.1M|A|B|C|

    ...I should report this as a pattern? So really I would only have 1 statistic? Interesting, because I have been taught to report these all separately.
