Mixed unit dimensions within a model

Mixed unit dimensions within a model

Bring the functionality that Creo Simulate has to specify units in whatever format you want to dimensions in modeling.

 

If I have a requirement driven dimension in one unit but I am working in another set of units it would be great to leave the requirement dimension in the original unit for ease of double checking.

Unigraphics or NX I know used to have it, but I haven't used NX since NX6, 13 years ago.

You would enter the value you wanted with mm(10) in an english part it would give you ~3/8 in dimension. Entering in(.375) in a metric part would give you 9.xxxx metric dimension.

Very handy when you have mixed unit designs.
