Dimension Threaded elbow/valves

this is the first time i have extracted a threaded iso. why is it dimensioning like this on the elbows/valve? all other isos have done the overall dimension...center of elbow to center of elbow.

The valve dimensioning is controlled by valve dimensioning behavior setting.  See attached. Can you post your PCF file so we can take a look at the elbow.  Thanks.

Hi Jedmxr,

 

Take a look at the two images I have attached.  The first is an iso I created of threaded components - I believe this is what you are looking for.  the second is of the Iso Dimensioning Configuration properties page - check your setup against mine.

 

Hope this helps

apparently threaded fitings are classified as miscellaneous. unchenking Miscellaneous fittings in all 3 catagories does the trick. thanks.
