Sometimes when I am trying to use the inspect tool, I get readings that are not helpful. I am working in a design that has quite a few XREFs and am trying to measure the distance between two faces. Here is what I get:
The top face is small, but it is indeed a face. I know these features are square and are squarely aligned with rigid joints. Fusion seems to know this too, but reports an angle of 0 degrees rather than the distance. That is not helpful. I have seen this in multiple models--not just this one.
If this happens, I re-select the features I want, but this time I use points rather than faces (and look at the xyz delta). This takes extra time and sometimes does not work. I have seen the inspect tool report an angle between two points on different components. This is not right, either. I do not have a screenshot for this, but it has happened more than once.
