Dimension Name & Feature Name in one?

Hi everyone,

I run into little problem with DataPage.
I'm exporting data from Pc-Dmis V4.3 to Datapage 3.33 with Feature Names selected. For some reason my keyed in dimensions report as Emptyfeat.m
When i export using Dimension Names, my keyed ins are ok.
Is there any way to combine both into report without exporting to separate files? Am i missing something? I do need to use feature names as this is what customer wants.

I hope i explained it right.

Thank you.

A KEYIN dimension has no feature. The only way to get a KEYIN into Datapage is to use DIMENSION ID's. You CAN, however, use INPUTS and put those KEYIN dimenisons into the INPUT, then use the INPUT into a generic feature, then dimension the generic feature.

Thank you for quick reply.
I tried input and it seems to work fine. It is a little extra work but achieves what i need.
One question.
What effect would it have if i were to leave it in the program?
Will the machine try to measure if i leave the coordinates of the feature @ 0,0,0? Will the program generate an error?
I have never used generic features before.

Thank you.
