    NOTE: To select multiple points, use rectangle selection with the Type Filter set to 'Point'. Or select a Group of points. 
  3. Highlight 'Select Object' and select the face to measure the distance.
  4. If needed, define the Measurement Definition.
  5. OK the Deviation Gauge dialog.
  6. The Deviation Gauge command will create an 'Analysis' folder in the Part Navigator.
To create a Deviation Checking Report and send it to an Information Window:
  1. Select 'Menu-->Information-->Object'.
  2. Select the Analysis Object in the folder in the Part Navigator.
  3. This will then populate the Information Window with the point data and distance to the face(s).
