Chamfer dim

Chamfer dim

Chamfer dim

(OP)
Has anyone had the problem of text size of the bilateral or simmetric tolerance of a chamfer dimension showing very big? I can not get it to show the default font size (same as the dimension font size).
thank you

RE: Chamfer dim

I took us a while to ours set to be smaller.  Maybe this will get you closer.
RMB click on the dim and sel. properties
Under tolerance button there is a Font sec.
There is a place to Use dim's font.
We've changed that to .6

Hope that helps or at least gets you a little closer.

Thanks, it worked for semmetrical but not bilateral. I will send it to SolidWorks for maybe future fix.

RE: Chamfer dim

I went back and looked at my tol for a bilateral and it worked as expected for me.  Not sure why it's not working the same for you.
