hollister design Studio Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I don't often use this tool, but I obviously have no understanding as to how to use it properly... see screen capture: diameter.mp4 What I'm I not doing right? Quote Link to comment

In cases like this I draw a curve over the existing one in Annotations and dimension that. VW often sees curves (eg. highlights them) but can't dimension them correctly. Kevin 1 Quote Link to comment

line-weight Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Looks like a problem that was raised >13 years ago. No doubt a fix is just around the corner. 1 Quote Link to comment

It's hard to tell, but I do see you are using a custom dimension style. Perhaps that is causing the problem? I have not run into this issue when dimensioning my models. Post the file and someone will take a look. Quote Link to comment
hollister design Studio Posted September 27, 2022 Author Share Posted September 27, 2022 Thanks everyone. I've fixed it before by doing as @Kevin McAllistersaid by drawing a curve in annotation space over the geometry. I'll continue that for now. 1 Quote Link to comment
