HD70849: DMUSPA:"MEASURE BETWEEN" DOES NOT MEASURE DISTANCE FROM THE CUR VE.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• DMUSPA:"MEASURE BETWEEN" DOES NOT
  MEASURE DISTANCE FROM THE CURVE.
  .
  SCENARIO:
  1. Start CATIA V5R18SP2.
  2. Open the file : "Test.CATPart".
  3. Go to "Generative Shape Design".
  4. Click "Intersection" icon.
  5. Intersection Definition" dialog box is displayed.
  6. Select "Extrude.2".Select "Plane.1".
  7. Click "OK".
  8. Intersect.1" is created.
  9. Click "Extrude.2" on the tree by MB3.
  10.Select "Hide/Show" by context menu.
  11.Extrude.2" disappears.
  12.Click "Working supports" on the tree by MB3.
  13.Select "Hide/Show" by context menu.
  14. Expand "Working supports" on the
  tree."Working support.1" is displayed on the tree.
  15. Click "Normal View" icon.
  16. Select "Working support.1" on the tree.
  17. Observe that "Intersect.1" is not an arc.
  18. Click "Measure Between" icon.
  19."Measure Between" dialog box is displayed.
  20. Select "Approximate" as "Calculation
  mode:".This is key point.
  21. Select "Intersect.1" on the geometry area. (The
  mark of cursor is a curve.)
  22. Select "Extrude.1" on the geometry area.
  23."Measure Between" does not measure distance
  from the form of "Intersect.1"
  24. This is the problem.
  .
  RESULT:
  - "Measure Between" does not measure distance
  from the form of curve although curve is not an
  arc.
  .
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  - "Measure Between" should measure distance
  from the form of curve if curve is not an arc.
  .

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON CATIA VERSION
  5 RELEASE 19 GA LEVEL.
  Incident Diagnosis:
  DMUSPA:'MEASURE BETWEEN' DOES NOT
  MEASURE DISTANCE FROM THE CURVE.
  .
  Correction Explanation:
  This problem has been fixed such a way that,
  During Approx measure, "Measure Between"
  should measure distance from the form of curve if
  curve is not an arc.
