Measuring Angles

Measuring Angles

Version - CMM Manager 2022

Hello everyone,

New to CMM's / CMM Manager. I just have a few questions regarding measuring angles.

1. If I create a diameter is there a way to add a visible reference crosshair X / Y? Once it is created can angles be measured off the X / Y lines? 

2. When I measure a diameter and then a bolt circle pattern part, I notice the angles are shown coming from the wrong way. Is there a way to fix or change this? Or am I doing something wrong with my approach?

3. Is there a difference using the Angle Between in Basic Reporting tab vs the Angle icon in GD&T tab?

The pictures shown below are from the top view. The view matches the movement of the CMM machine. 

Thanks
