User Defined Hits
This menu option becomes automatically selected whenever you manually make a change to a hit or path using the mouse.

If you then deselect this menu option, PC-DMIS reverts your change back to what it was before.

Additionally, if you have this option selected for a hit and then change to the feature's perpendicular view with View Perpendicular, you can adjust the depth or height for that specific hit.

View Normal
This changes the CAD view of the feature to a top-down view.

View Perpendicular
This changes the CAD view of the feature to a side view, ideal for defining a feature's depth or adding additional levels of hits.
