Deviation checking between two surfaces

[aleksandar81]

I,m trying to analyze distance between two surfaces,so far I found that Deviation gauge is giving me what I need,but I can't keep needles with display value, that I want to use it as start point for future design.Is there some other tools I can use for what I need?

See if a normal distance measurement gives you the same minimum distance. If it does, change the annotation pulldown in the dialog to Create Line.

Why can't you keep the Needles ? - You exit the dialog with OK and not Cancel ?
What Version of NX?
Might this be a graphics issue ? - What graphics adapter are you running ?

I need something to create (keep) any line (from the array) not just minimum distance.

I can select and keep them in side of array and use that to read distance,but I can't keep the lines and delete rest of array,there is no option for that.I exit dialog with OK,version NX9.
Is there any other tool for this type of job?

I don't get this, You want corresponding lines to be created in between the analysis objects ?
