Anchor Description
X, Y, or Z Lets you choose the X, Y, or Z measurement of another tool
to use as a positional anchor for this tool.
Z angle Lets you choose the Z Angle measurement of another tool to
use as an angle anchor for this tool.
Anchoring
A measurement must be enabled in the other tool for it to be available as an anchor. The anchor
measurement should also be properly configured before using it as an anchor.
For more information on anchoring, see Measurement Anchoring on page 211.
Section
The Surface Section tool lets you define a line on a surface (a "section")from which the tool extracts a
profile. You can apply any Profile tool to the resulting profile (see Profile Measurement on page 220).
Note that a section can have any XYorientation on the surface, but its profile is parallel to the Z axis.
