Thanks Don, I've added that in:

Sent e-mail to Jared:
"Jared,

Your documentation is very good.  I just added one statement about simultaneous evaluation.



·            Radial Arc / Right Angle to Radial
You can apply a positional tolerance in two directions to features located by polar coordinate dimensions relative to the specified datums. To do this, define two FCF dimensions and apply a different planar tolerance in each direction. One FCF dimension's tolerance should be a radial direction (Radial Arc). The other FCF dimension should be perpendicular to the imaginary center line that passes through the features (Right Angle to Radial).  To evaluate the positional tolerance in these two directions simultaneously, you must create a SIMULTANEOUS EVALUATION command that references these two FCF’s.

Hi Don T. This is now documented. It took me a while to generate the diagram. I wasn't sure what all to include in the text or diagram I created based off of the gd&t standard section you sent me so please check this carefully. I tried to touch on the two different types of tolerance zones that were generated from the Radial Arc and Right Angle to Radial options.
Follow the link here
http://10.57.112.13/WAIhelp/Core/feature_control_frames/Feature_Control_Frame_Tab.htm
Then on that page scroll down to where it discusses Planar Tolerance. Click the drop down link for the "Radial Arc and Right Angle to Radial" text to see the information added.

Started documenting this. I've looked at the documentation Don sent me by email.

I have been working with this test program both on-line and off-line this afternoon, experimenting with various parameters and behavior, and it seems to be wroking fine.

I have fixed a problem with the enum order of XACT_TP_TYPE.  I added the new enums for XACT_TP_POSITION_PLANAR_RADIAL_ARC and XACT_TP_POSITION_PLANAR_RTANGLETORADIAL to the end.  Otherwise, legacy programs with spherical zones would not load with the correct zone set.  I have updated my test program for this task and re-uploaded.

Reviewed and verified using the latest QA code.

I don't have access to these standards; I will need info from these. Thanks.

In the ASME Y14.5 1994 standard, you can look at section 5.9.2 Polar Coordinate Method and Fig. 5-42.
In the ASME Y14.5 2009 standard, this is described in section 7.4.4.2 Polar Coordinate Method and Fig. 7-29.

I have completed implementing the math.  I have changed the two new axes to the axes list on the Planar Zone dialog:
  Radial Arc
  Right Angle to Radial
I think Radial Arc is a better description of the zone shape.
I have attached my test program.

<< Don Turcotte (Development Notes)  --  10/07/09  17:20:10>>
I have finished hooking this up to the user interface.  I have added two new axes to the axes list on the Planar Zone dialog:
  Radial
  Right Angle to Radial
I have created a test program and attached to this task.
I am now working on implementing the math and verifying the report.
