Hi all

In NX4....does anyone know if its possible to 'get hold' of the change 'points' at the %Arc Length's originally used to define a variable edge blend?...the aim being to be able to detail dimension to these change points.

At the moment the only way I can see is to create essentially duplicate points on extracted edges before the blend is done and create expressions so the model points 'coincide' with the 'green cube' %Arc Length change points in the Blend operation....any better ideas would be more than welcome! :-D

I really don't think that there is a way to do what you want to do.
What you can to is add points to the model, and use them for your variable blend, and then dimension to those points.
