Performing a dimensional accuracy analysis |
||
| As with geometrical analysis,
there are two options available for conducting a dimensional analysis: "DIMS"
(=ALL) and "Box" (=selective). If "DIMS" is picked the system will immediately begin an analysis of all dimensions. Normally, there are far fewer dimensions on a drawing than geometry so no estimation of time needed is performed. The progress meter should move quickly to completion. If "Box" is selected you must chose an area (box) containing dimensions you wish to analyse. The program then continues as described above. |

When the analysis is complete, the table
will show the percentage of good, OK and bad dimensions. In the example shown here only
24% are good, 59% OK and 18% bad. You may highlight a specific accuracy level by picking a field. For example if you pick "Good 24%" then all the "good" dimensions will be highlighted in their true colours. Reset the display by selecting "Reset". The various accuracy elements can be re-displayed, if necessary without re-analysing the drawing. |
