[CMM]Some horizontal dimensions changed to text above leader

[CMM]Some horizontal dimensions changed to text above leader Description of Problem:


Some radial and diametral dimensions do not display in NX Drafting the way they display in I-deas Drafting after the I-deas drawings have been migrated to NX.

How to reproduce the Problem:


An I-deas package file is being supplied along with a Microsoft Excel file that documents the problem with pictures. I experienced the same problem when I tried to migrate the supplied drawing. There are several radial and diametral dimensions that do not display the same way in NX Drafting the way they did in I-deas Drafting. They almost appear to be adhering to a different drafting standard than the one applied in I-deas. The Excel document shows these dimensions in I-deas and in NX. There are some radial dimension, however, that are appearing the same in both programs.

Workaround:


None known other than to recreate the dimensions in NX.

Platform(s) and version(s) tested on:


Customer: NX5.0.2.2MP2, NXI5M1, TcE2005SR1MP3, TCII5.1, CMM5.0.2

Milford: CMM 5.0.4.058 and TcEng 2007.1.3

Data or platform specific?:


Data specific

File type and Data Being Supplied:


Windows zip file containing an I-deas package file and a Microsoft Excel file illustrating the issue.

Other Information:


None. Siemens PLM believes that the problem you reported where some radial and diametral dimensions were not displaying in NX Drafting the same way they were originally displayed in NX I-deas Master Drafting will be resolved by code changes in NX version 6.0.4.
