Hi,

is it possible to get the calculation (variables) behind the value of a reference dimension?

e.g. i got a house as drawing model and want to measure length h3 (thus h3 = h1 + h2). Creo is returning the absolute value... e.g. h3 = 100 but I would like to get "h3 = h1 + h2".

regards and thank you in advance

Luis,

in Creo 2.0 you can get this result:

Dimensions on the right side are model dimension, which were renamed. When you display their properties, you will get:

Dimension on the left side is drawing dimension. When you display its properties, you will get:

Model & drawing is also attached.

HeyMartin,

did you do this manually by hand or did creo it automatically?

Luis,

all changes marked by red "ovals" were done manually.
