Appendix A Profile measurement
Tolerances can be applied to profile measurements as bilateral or unilateral
pass/fail boundaries. Bilateral tolerances can be distributed equally or un-
equally around the nominal edges of the part, and are specified by the user.
The X, Y and angular offsets, the maximum form error, the number of data
points and tolerance pass/fail results can be displayed in the Measure Profile
window at the conclusion of the Fit operation. Upon completion of the
profile measurement the profile feature is created in the Features template.

Functions for conducting profile measurements are located across the bot-
