Re: Nube needs help

Thank you for all your replies. Dan, just thought I'd let you know...I was customizing my toolbar so the measurement tools would show up in all work benches. While I was adding them the mirror icon was right there so I thought what the heck and sure enough when in an assembly it works for mirroring ...

Re: Component mirror?

Yes I have seen the existing measure tool but it only seems to go from point to point. Meaning if I measure in between two parallel planes/surfaces I get from point to point, where ever I pick on the surfaces, or a perpendicular measurement between the two, that's what I'm looking for.

Component mirror?

Also is it possible to measure between two parallel surfaces/planes?

At first, you add the constraint without an offset. After doing this, you can select the new constraint in the treeview and edit the property "offset".

I Have the constraints in the treeview but no mater what I do I'm not seeing where edit the property upset?
