  • width not showing up for position output in legacy mode

    First of all I am in Legacy dimension mode...

    I created a Width (Datum C) from two points, and this measured feature (Named D1) is also a width.
    I can output both of them as a "Location feature" for size and location
    My datum A is a cylinder

    SEE IMAGE:

    My blueprint calls out True position for this feature at MMC, and the primary datum (A) at MMC, as well as the tertiary datum C at MMC.

    All these features show up in the drop down selection list for LOCATION, and for calculation in Standard FCF (Xact Measure) for positioning.

    THESE WIDTHS DO NOT SHOW UP WHILE IN LEGACY POSITIONING??

    IS THIS A BUG... AND IS THERE ANY WAY AROUND THIS

    ... the reason I want to use legacy is to send over my data to a custom Excel importer which does not handle FCF's well, nor does the Hexagon excel output, as you can not put multiple parts in one spreadsheet...

    I need to do stats in Excel for 25 pcs

    Thanx in advance

      Maybe try something like this..Make a generic circle then report off of that.

      A generic circle will always be accessible in your dropdowns for any type of reporting(legacy or Xact). So should a width...but hey idk..Sounds like you have a bug.

      Code:
      PNT1 =FEAT/CONTACT/VECTOR POINT/DEFAULT,CARTESIAN
      THEO/<0,0,0>,<1,0,0>
      ACTL/<0,0,0>,<1,0,0>
      TARG/<0,0,0>,<1,0,0>
      SHOW FEATURE PARAMETERS=NO
      SHOW CONTACT PARAMETERS=NO
      PNT2 =FEAT/CONTACT/VECTOR POINT/DEFAULT,CARTESIAN
      THEO/<0.5,0,0>,<-1,0,0>
      ACTL/<0.5,0,0>,<-1,0,0>
      TARG/<0.5,0,0>,<-1,0,0>
      SHOW FEATURE PARAMETERS=NO
      SHOW CONTACT PARAMETERS=NO
      PNT3 =FEAT/POINT,CARTESIAN,NO
      THEO/<0.25,0,0>,<0,0,1>
      ACTL/<0.25,0,0>,<0,0,1>
      CONSTR/POINT,MID,PNT1,PNT2
      F1 =GENERIC/CIRCLE,DEPENDENT,CARTESIAN,OUT,$
      NOM/XYZ,<PNT3.X,PNT3.Y,PNT3.Z>,$
      MEAS/XYZ,<PNT3.X,PNT3.Y,PNT3.Z>,$
      NOM/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
      MEAS/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
      DIAMETER/0.5,PNT2.X-PNT1.X

        A width does not show up for me with legacy, only Xact.

      the constructed width was added after pc dmis went to xact measure so they didn't update legacy to support it
