Need help with math formula

[Jeff Andresen]

Sorry for the poor explanation.
Actually, I need the distance between two lines less .025.
I tried a generic feature and got crazy numbers.

You could create an offset point. Create a point offset without a reference feature with values of 0,0,0. In the edit window change one axis to your variable such as Var0. Then just dimension that axis on that point.

assign a variable to the measured dia
something like...
assign/v1 = cir1.d.meas
assign/v2 = v1 - .025

create a generic feature and in command window edit the v2 variable into the Diameter field
then report the diameter of that generic feature

[Schrocknroll]

If your nominal size is from circle cir1 then insert "cir1.d-.25" into the nominal for a generic feature. Or you could put it into a comment. If it is from a location callout i.e. loc1, then use "loc1.d.meas".

Don't include the quotes.

I need to subtract .025 from the nominal size and report that as a location.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
