====================

Within the parameters listed above, is it possible to measure model wall thickness and have the results plotted on the model in varying colors based on the measured wall thickness?

If so, where do I find it and how do I do it?

If not, what do I need to perform this task?

I know that there is a display option within Face Analysis called ‘Fringe’ that will color the model based upon the measurement results. I just don't know if I can/how do I get these results for measuring wall thickness.

Many thanks!

John,

Once again, you are the master!

I believe this is what we are looking for. I have reported you answer to my user, and he is now trying to familiarize himself with the options.

Thanks again, and a shiny new star for you!
