Just wanted to post a question.. I'm having a debate about the tolerance zones for the above form controls.

Both are determined by a value given, say .5mm .. the tolerance is two concentric circles (or cylinders) that are spaced .5mm apart from each other at all points radially around the tolerance zone.

In theory, lets say you have a part with 25mm +- .4mm

You could have one side of the circle have a .5mm dip and every other part of the circle be perfect, for a total tolerance used of .5mm in circularity, and .5mm in diameter. Everything is good.

Lets take that same part, add another .5mm dip to the exact other side of the circle so that both of the .5mm dips are a mirror image to each other.

The circularity is still .5mm, but the diameter drops another .5mm across the two dips.. for a total size drop of 1mm.. which exceeds the size tolerance.

So it appears that even with a geometric tolerance "less than" our size tolerance, we can still in theory experience undersize or oversize diametric conditions. Is this accurate or am I not understanding? I would think the method would be to have a geometric tolerance equal to half the size tolerance for worst case conditions? (Think rule 1)

The person I'm debating is going as far as to say I am incorrect and that the .5mm tolerance zone given isnt the radial distance between 2 circles, but in fact its half the .5 and it should be .25mm .. makes no sense. Y14.5 clearly states the tolerance is a radial width between two concentric circles.

He is also claiming you can accurately measure circularity with 2 point measurement devices, in that the circularity consumed is equal to the diameter size differences on a mic.

I believe this to be incorrect as well. If you had a .2mm dip on one side, the diameter would change by .2mm with a circularity of .2mm. If you had .2mm dips on both sides, the diameter would change .4mm and circularity would be .2mm.

Who would you say has a better understanding of this?

Hello!

I've recently returned to Mastercam, using the home learner edition at the moment-- I've noticed that on my current setup-- I get strange jittery framerates when verifying toolpaths in Verify.

I've never experienced this before and I'm using the same PC as I was when I was previously using it about 7 months ago.

The entire 3d environment is silky smooth, no lag whatsoever-- but when watching toolpath motion in verify it's like visible framerate style lag you would get in a video game if you had a potato for a PC. It's smooth for a few seconds, then goes jittery, smooth again, jittery.

I'm running on my laptop which is:

Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX
NVIDIA RTX 5090 24gb
96gb RAM
Samsung 9100 and 990 PRO 4tb HDs

I monitor task manager on my 2nd monitor and my CPU usage stays very low, GPU usage stays low.. everything is fine. Not sure why it appears to be "lagging"

I have no issues using SolidWorks, Inventor, etc.. and generally I have no issues using Mastercam either. It's just a strange, mildly annoying framerate lag.

Appreciate any advice or troubleshooting tips.

Hope this is the appropriate place to address this question:

I am using a laptop with an RTX 5090 gpu, now I know it's not a workstation GPU, but it's pretty powerful. I have zero issues running anything solidworks related-- however, it appears I am unable to enabled full scene anti-aliasing (the option is just greyed out).

Am I unable to do this because the GPU isn't technically a solidworks certified GPU?

I am totally fine if thats the case, I am just kind of someone who likes things visually pleasing and if I can get rid of jagged eges, I would love to do so.

I've tried using the NVIDIA control panel to force the application to do it, but that didn't work either.

Thanks for any tips/info.

Hello

I've been a user of elvui for awhile throughout many expansions but ive recently discovered heal prediction and its rather nice, however

..

..

It doesn't scale at all with increased healing power.

My rank 1 flash of lights show a heal prediction of 80hp when they actually heal for almost 500.

What's going on here? Is this just a limitation of this feature with the classic framework?

Hello

Ive been a premium gpt user for awhile now.. and in the last month or so, my overall experience has degraded so massively and I cannot figure out why.

The desktop/browser version of chatgpt simply does not work. Literally at all!

My mobile app android version works flawlessly. Loads fast, prompts work. Everything works.

Desktop browser? Sits on a black screen for 20 minutes when I type a prompt, fails to upload even 1 image, takes 10 uploads to successfully get it to upload. Absolutely nothing works anymore. It is so bizarre.

I've cleared cache, cookies, everything. I reached out to support and they just sent generic automated responses back with zero human interaction to help me figure this out.

I'm about to just cancel my subscription and go to a different AI. Grok doesnt do this. Gemini doesnt do this, etc.

Why is my chatgpt web browser version just bricked?
