Comments

• THIS APAR IS CONSIDERED AS A SUGGESTION FOR IMPROVEMENT FOR
  CATIA.
  PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT DEPARTMENT IN ORDER TO OPEN A
  REQUIREMENT FORM.
  
   INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS:
  The funnel-shape is not taken into account when positionning
  the leader of a DatumFeature. The leader moves as if the
  extension line was straight.
  
   JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVLOPMENT REQUEST:
  This requires development in order to have the datum follow
  the exact shape of the funnel extension line.
  This cannot be achieved on a service pack but will be done
  on a further release.
  
   ANSWER AND POSSIBLE BY-PASS:
  Click on empty space to create the leader, then move the end-
  point on the dimension extension line, so as to be graphically
  superimposed.
