HD96507: GSD: RESULT OF "FLATTENED SURFACE LENGTH DISTORTION" IS DIFFEREN T FROM R18.

APAR status

• Closed as user error.

Error description

• Scenario:
  1. While performing the unfold operation in Generative shape
  design workbench
  2. A "Display distortions" button is used
  3. "Flattened Surface Length Distortion" dialog box is
  displayed.
  The unfold command shows different values for the same
  surface on V5R19 SP05 level than the V5R18 SP02
  Result:
   - R19SP5:
     "Maximum (%) /1.1424", "Minimum (%) / -0.66434".
   - R18SP2:
     "Maximum (%) /1.1428", "Minimum (%) / -0.66505".
        >> Result is different. This is the problem.
  Expected Result:
   The correct value should be displayed on the "Flattened
  Surface Length Distortion" dialog box.

Comments

• Incident Diagnosis:
  The maximum and minimum percentage value displayed by the
  ???display distortion??? command on V5R18 and V5R19SP05 are
  different.
  Correct Application:
  The difference observed in the percentage values is very
  small and within the precision, hence they are not wrong. It
  is important to note that the final result obtained by the
  Unfold command is correct and are same on both V5R18 and
  V5R19SP05 levels. Whereas the percentages are computed on
  temporary data used in the ???Run??? stage of the unfold
  operator, they may changed slightly (Within Precision)
  however the result is the same after the resolution.
  This percentage values shown by ???display distortion??? is only
  
  for information. In order to compare two releases user can
  check directly the output body.
