HD69287: GSD: MINIMUM DISTANCE IS INCORRECTLY MEASURED BY THE MEASURE BE TWEEN COMMAND.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• GSD: MINIMUM DISTANCE IS INCORRECTLY
  MEASURED BY THE MEASURE BETWEEN COMMAND.
  .
  SCENARIO.
  1. Start CATIA V5R17SP03. Refer to the .ppt file
  attched.
  2. Open the file: SUR.CATPart. Workbench:
  Generative Shape Design.
  3. Select the Measure Between icon.  Measure
  Between window is displayed.
  4. Select SUR_1 and SUR_2 from specification
  tree.  Minimum distance of SUR_1 and SUR_2 is not
  measured correctly.
  Error: Minimum distance is not correctly measured
  by the Measure Between command.

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON CATIA VERSION
  5 RELEASE 19 GA level.
  NOTE THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL ALSO BE FIXED
  ON V5R18SP04.
  .
  Incident Diagnosis
  Ineffectiveness in choosing the Initial points (used
  for minimum distance calculation). Algorithm
  misses the face pair which achieves
  the minimum distance.
  .
  Correction Explanation.
  Some additional initial points are provided in
  addition to the current initial points. This ensures
  that the correct face pair is chosen for minimum
  distance calculation.
