Arc length dimension

Pro Gurus,


Is there a way to create a strong (or even weak or reference) arc length (not chord length) dimension in sketcher?


TIA


Jim Majewski


Sorry, should have mentioned WF 4, M12.

In sketcher, select the arc, Edit, Tools, Convert to, Perimeter and it'll create a dimension for the arc length. You can also select a chain of lines, curves, etc to create a perimeter. This is in Wildfire 4.0.

Thanks!
Ted

Another method is while in sketcher: RMB,Select Dimension, pick each arc endpoint then the arc itself and place your dimension.



FYI, this is only for Creo Elements/Pro 5.0. I apologize for any confusion.
