Adding Material Thickness

[thecoot]

picking a vector point on one side but want the results to the opposite side of the material, 1mm sheet metal.Can't measure it on the other side.

I picked the vector point off CAD and put the material thickness -1mm which really is adding the 1mm material thickness, correct ?
Now should the Theo be -1 or Actual ?

If you select "Actual" and enter the value (thick) Pc dmis substracts the material thickness (I think this what you need)
If you select "Theo" and enter the value (thick) the nominal will change.

Unless this function changed with newer versions (worked in automotive long time ago)

Thanks for the reply
I'm using V3.5 so would assume I'm doing it correct then.
