Dimensioning a Radius Groove????? 4

[quest4k]

Good afternoon, I have a single part which is a an extruded cylinder, .537 diameter, if it matters. On that cylinder I have a .031 R groove, for a snap ring, which at the bottom of the radius, I need to add a dimension, .502 diameter. So far the only thing I have been able to do is once again lie. This thing will not pick up the bottom of teh radius, or tangent edge, if you like so does anyone have any suggestions on any possiblities on how to do this? I won't say were this was a piece of cake, but I need to show the machinist the dimensions. Thank you in advance for any assistance rendered.

No, Jason, it is still SP0. I have the auto check for service packs on and it has not found any yet. Have a good on.

SP1 has been out for a week or so and I highly suggest you update. Apparently the button to check for new service packs is not working or they haven't updated the mechanism on the website that indicates a new SP is avaialble.
