Dimension from face to face


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

Please see the image attached.

I used to measure from face to face quite simple but now with 2016 it measures it on an angle not perpendicular!

 

What's going on here?

check out Delta Z, Delta X, Delta Y. cant see your UCS so don't know which is which. but that will give you the distance you are looking for. faces aren't in front of each other so inventor gives you all the distances you need.

As Zac has said the Delta dimensions will be your best friend so keep an eye on the xyz triad in the lower left hand corner.
