#### Characteristic Point Field Definitions

SHOWHITS = This is a toggle field. It toggles from YES to NO and determines if hits will be displayed with this feature. This is currently unavailable.

SHOWALLPARAMS = This is a toggle field. It toggles from YES to NO as to displaying all the parameters on the feature.

THEO_THICKNESS = This value indicates the keyed in thickness of the part. Positive or negative values can be used.

ACTL_THICKNESS = This value indicates the keyed in offset thickness of the measured data. Positive or negative values can be used.

TOG 1= This is a toggle field. The X,Y,Z,I,J,K will be displayed in RECT (rectangular) or POLR (polar ) coordinates.

THEO / = This value represents the target hit .

ACTL / = This value represents the measured hit.

TARG = These values allow you to control the measurement location and vector approach direction for execution while having the ability to have a completely different THEO value.

AUTO MOVE = This is a toggle field. A YES indicates that this option is ON.

DISTANCE = This value indicates the distance the probe will move using the AUTO MOVE option.

VECTOR1 = The three numbers (IJK values) are an editable vector and will be forced to be perpendicular to the vector on the first surface.

VECTOR2 = The three numbers (IJK values) are an editable vector and will be forced to be perpendicular to the vector on the second surface.

INDENT1 = This editable number is the offset distance for the point location on the first surface of the angle. It is not used for Characteristic Point 2.

INDENT2 = This editable number is the offset distance for the point location on the second surface of the angle. It is not used for Characteristic Point 2.

Note: See the "Common Auto Feature Dialog Box Options" topic in the "Creating Auto Features" section for general guidelines on measuring all Auto Feature types.
