Tolerancing 

This page deals with the options concerning:

Tolerancing Standard

Default standard at creation
Seven conventional standards are available:
  • ANSI: American National Standards Institute
  • ASME: American Society for Mechanical Engineers
  • ASME 3D: American Society for Mechanical Engineers
  • ISO: International Organization for Standardization
  • ISO 3D: International Organization for Standardization
  • JIS: Japanese Industrial Standard
  • JIS 3D: Japanese Industrial Standard
By default, the ISO standard is selected.

Semantic Control
Defines the semantic control options:

Always try to create semantic tolerances and dimensions

Tries to set as semantic an annotation during its creation. Applicable on annotation which can be semantic, keep in mind that the annotation display could be modified and/or moved according to the standard semantic.
By default, this option is selected.

Always try to create semantic general tolerances on dimensions

Tries to set as semantic a general tolerances dimension during its creation. Applicable on dimension which can be semantic, available only if Always try to create semantic tolerances and dimensions is selected.
By default, this option is not selected.

Non-semantic tolerance creation allowed
Defines whether non-semantic tolerances creation is allowed.
By default, this option is selected.

Non-semantic dimension creation allowed
Defines whether non-semantic dimensions creation is allowed.
By default, this option is selected.

Leader associativity to the geometry
Defines the leader associativity options:
  • Free: specifies that leader annotations are freely positioned relative to their geometrical elements.
  • Perpendicular: specifies that leader annotations are positioned perpendicular to their geometrical elements.
By default, the Free option is selected.

Published Geometry
Defines the published geometry options:

Create annotation on published geometry only
Defines whether annotations are created on published geometry only.
When this option is selected, the Forbidden cursor is displayed over non-published geometries:
By default, this option is not selected.

Note Object Attribute
Defines the Note Object Attribute options:

Allow Note Object Attribute creation
Defines whether note object attribute can be created by user. Enable or disable the icon and menu item commands.
By default, this option is not selected.
