Hello,
I need to enter dimensions for maximum width, height and thickness of a part into a drawing. The outside of the part consists soleley of design surfaces, so it has no edges to measure on directly. Therefor I want to place points in 3D on the part's surfaces to use for the dimensioning in the drawing.
Now I have 2 questions about this:
1) How do I place a point on the exact place of a surface that is the farthest away from a coordinate system plane (e.g. XY plane) or the closest to this plane (for minimum width)?
2) Is it possible to 'catch' the maximum distance in a specific direction directly in a drawing view.
Thank you for any help!
