Summary


Details

Deleting a dimension that has a Feature Control Frame associated to it results in the Feature Control Frame becoming retained (dashed). Rather than recreate the Feature Control Frame, it can be associated to a new dimension.

Solution

Use the following process to re-associate the Feature Control Frame to a new dimension:


1. Place the cursor on the Feature Control Frame to highlight it, and select right-hand mouse button command - 'Edit'.


2. In the 'Origin - Specify Location' section of the 'Feature Control Frame' dialog, select 'Origin Tool'. Select the 'Point Constructor' option and set 'Origin Location' to 'Inferred Point'. Select a location at the middle
(origin) of the Feature Control Frame. Select 'OK' and 'Close'. The Feature Control Frame is no longer associated to the original dimension and is displayed with a solid lines.

3. Select and drag the Feature Control Frame on to a different dimension to create an associative alignment.
