DRF 'AE' OK FOR ONE SET OF FEATURES BUT NOT ANOTHER

HammonJ 7 months ago

So AE (A being a plane and E being a pattern datum) works as it should for AA features but not AB or any other features moving forward. Why?

check the length on the "AB" cylinders. this happened to me a few days ago. PCdms chose to start the Z minus of the cylinder vs the Z plus. I went back and redid them and it worked.

example AB1 length is -10 and AA1 is +10

Neil actually just said today that void detection can make PC-DMIS ignore variables in this thread, so you are 100% right there. I just hate void detection in general, it will never be on
