ModelCheck Layer options

ModelCheck Layer options

I am trying to configure ModelCheck to clean up my part layers.

Most features work as planned IE. Datum Planes, Curves, Points etc..

But Axis seems a little challenging.

My Layer.mcs file has these layers defined.

/Test 1

PRT_LAYER PRT_DTM_AXIS BLANK DATUM_AXIS

PRT_LAYER PRT_AXIS BLANK AXIS

Run MC and results are: manually created axis are layered off, feature based axis (protrusions,cuts, holes etc..) are not layered.

Next step to test out the MC function, add these layer settings to my Layers.mcs file.

/Test 2

PRT_LAYER PRT_HOLE BLANK HOLE

PRT_LAYER PRT_PROTRUSION BLANK PROTRUSION

Run MC and results are: Holes and Protrusions layered off, the actual feature is still visible and the axis are off

So my questions is why doesn't the first test run grab the axis of features?

I do not want all the extra layers created, one layer called Prt_Axis that contain all axis

Regards

Jeff L.

The correct answer is:

PRT_LAYER PRT_AXIS BLANK AXIS

PRT_LAYER PRT_AXIS BLANK HOLE

PRT_LAYER PRT_AXIS BLANK PROTRUSION

PRT_LAYER PRT_AXIS BLANK CUT

This will create 1 layer called PRT_AXIS, that has all features listed above.
