Convert Units: relations

[donald_gibson]

Hey all,

Is there any way to convert relations when you switch units in pro/E?

I have some relations in a feature that are based on inches. When I convert to mm, the relations do not get changed and things fall apart.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Donald,

Maybe try adding an IF/THEN statement to Pro/PROGRAM.
Set it up to add a Y/N parameter asking if in inches (or mm). Then IF units == Y (inches) - use relations, ELSE (use alternative relations - if applicable), END IF.

Give it a try. Not knowing your specifics this should work.
