Circle and radius

Hey guys need some help here.

I am trying to get radius when i take points from a CAD by creating a circle. But when i take the hits, the circle is off and not matching with the CAD. So I changed the work plane to X plus and i take the hits again and would form the circle but i am not getting close to the diameter I need to create the radius. I setup my alignment as basic so by making a plane/line and plane. Then I need to use the circle and radius for my X and Y origin. I hope this make sense, and with some help will be appreciated or lead me to a post mentioning this already. Thanks.

  • Okay it worked great. But also with the circles. When I creat a circle it would have the correct size, but when i hit finish it changes the size to something else. For example, when i create a circle it will measure at .407 which is the nominal size but when i hit finish it would change to 1.000. Why is it doing that? I tried changing workplanes and everything else that I can think of. Can anyone help me on that? Thanks


    Can you post your program code?
