3d drawing not working?

[pascual]

hi,

It's supposed wildfire 2 can manage 3d dimension in an isometric view but when I try to make a new dimension in such view is not real. It seems the value match the proyected dimension.

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong or proe isn't capable of doing what I want. Other systems like unigraphics have this feature in a very simple way - just a dimension. I'd like to know if you have the same problem

Do a search on this site for 3D dimensions. This topic was covered before

You probably need to set up the
allow_3D_dimensions yes
in your Drawing Setup config file this should solve your problem.

UG had a good capability for doing 3D drawings before the 3D drawings movement. How do you think Wildfire compares with its 3D dimension functionality.

Do you know of any at your company?

I've see the thread [sorry for the duplicate] but when I try to do that it don't work. Let me explain, I make a dimension, let's say 100mm, then I switch view the dimension and -surprise- it's not 100mm, it's 83,456mm.

I do have "allow_3d_dimensions" set to "yes".

For UG, I find 3D dimensions are better than in Proe because I can't get true 3D dimensions in Proe.

The problem with ProE ISO dimensions is that they need to be created for a particular view orientation and displayed for that same view in the drawing. If you swicth the dim to another view, it will change value.
