Error in Best Fit 2D Alignment

When trying to create a Surface Profile Dimension from a scan I keep getting this error message : Error in Best Fit 2D Alignment

For my part alignment I am using the plane/line/line. Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong?

  • After adding datums to my surface profile dimension I no longer get the error so that seems to be a solution to my problem, except my drawing does not define any datums. The only callouts on the drawing are for surface profiles.


    Well, if your drawing uses the latest GD&T definitions and DOESN'T have a datum reference frame in the Profile FCF, then the engineer only wants to know the form/shape of the feature.

    Once you add your own datum reference frame, you have instructed PCDMIS to report on both form/shape and location/orientation. Be sure that is, in fact, what you want! (ask the drawing author)
