I took a tip from Matt on an old post to use it even when I don't have cad just makes things look a bit nicer on the screen. I very seldom get cadsigpic

cad=prt
I only use cad=part when I have an electrode that I am inspecting on a fixture plate. The electrode has coordinates relating back to the center of the fixture.

I dont need to use it as long as I do an iterative alignment. But when I dont I do use it and havent had any problems as of yetsigpicComment

The only time i use it is when i have cad.sigpic.....Its called golf because all the other 4 letter words were takenComment

switch to 2D rotate mode and right click on the measured or constructed line that you used to rotate about and it should square up the screen."People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought, which they seldom use." ~ Soren KierkegaardComment

The only time I'll use CAD=PART is if I have to inspect round or cylindrical parts to CAD that don't have a feature that I can rotate to. Otherwise, I use iterative alignments.sigpic GO LEAFS GO!!!
Stay true to your friends, 'cause they'll save you in the end.

I find doing cad=part even when you do not have cad cleans up the graphics screen during dynamic ratate. I hate PCDMIS's dynamic rotate but after doing cad=part it gets a little better for some reason. So I do it everytime. Funny thing is you can have sucky dynamic rotate then do an alignment with cad=part then the rotate improves even if you go back and delete that alignment.
