Allow Pro/E (Creo Parametric) to measure the angle of selected elements

[dhermosillo]

Currently, Pro/E (Creo Parametric) measures only the angle normal to the elements selected, not the actual angle, in the measure tool.

PTC, please add an option to measure the angle between the actual elements selected in the measure tool.

In the measurement Dialog Box click on the dark black triangle in the upper corner of the dialog box.  You will then see the measurement tool options.  Next change angle from Main to Supplement.  This should give you what you are looking for.  There may be a config option to make this permament.

I'll have to try that when we switch to Creo 2.0 at the end of September.  Right now we're on Wildfire 5.0 and there does not appear to be any setting like that.

Aha!  It does work in Creo 2.0.

Unfortunately, Wildfire & older version users don't have access to this improvement.
