Question

how do I dimension drafted rounds on Creo 3.0?

I've tried using the 'dimension' tool but it does not allow me to dimension any drafted round. I can't use 'Show model annotations' as the data was imported from a separate file. Any ideas how I can create a dimension for a drafted round? I've never had this problem in Creo 2.0..

Hi Jeffrey,

Please upload an image and/or the file you are trying to work with.

It will help understand the issue.

Thanks,

Hi Amit,

Here's an image showing my attempt to dimension the round (which is drafted by 1.5 degrees in the model) using the 'dimension' tool. No dimension shows up when i click the round.

Thanks

Yes I'm trying to dimension the radius. The feature was created as you said; drafter then rounded. Here is another picture showing the part in the model. I've used the measure tool to dimension the radius in the model.

You can try showing such radii after setting the drawing detail option "allow_3d_dimensions" to yes.
