Hello all, 

I'm trying to measure an angle between a edge of my object and the line that makes up the envelope.  Does anyone know how to do that?

Hello,

 

Please explain about the Envelope you refer to. Is that part of the model? How was it created?

 

Thanks,

I have a model of a truck and around that I have an envelope.  I would like to calculate the angle between the side of the truck and the line of the envelope (the angle that I marked in the red square)

 

Thanks

The envelope is just a measurement that we can do in Creo.  It envelops the model and gives the measurements
