compare a measured point to a theoretical line from CAD

BlueRay
Ok so I'm pretty new with this software, but here's what I'm trying to do:

I'm using the auto line feature to guide to a modeled center line of a hole (the hole dia is smaller than the probe I'm using).. Using the readout I can see the distance to this center line as a vector and see how far away the hole is compared to where it's modeled to be.
After seeing the hole is correct, I'd like to now take a point with the probe in the hole, and then compare that measured point to the vector of the CAD center line. Ideally, I'm looking for it to report a distance in inches

  • I found the "Read Point" function. All that does is tell you where the probe is located when the button is pressed while in the "Auto Feature" box, it doesn't actually report anything. I'm looking for a way to report a "point to line" vector comparison, when the line is an auto feature line, and the point is manually taken, if that's possible.
