Showing High/Low tolerance while in drawing

Showing High/Low tolerance while in drawing

Showing High/Low tolerance while in drawing

(OP)
I have several drawing and am trying to show the Hi/Lo tolerance on the dimensions. I've been told it can be done, but cannot figure it out. When I go into the edit mode, the tolerance mode button is grayed out. The text area shows "As Is". If someone can tell me a work around, it would really help.

Thanks,
Danoo

RE: Showing High/Low tolerance while in drawing

You need to add the following to your config.pro file


tol_display yes
tol_mode nominal

and add the following to your drawing dtl file ( found by right-clicking on the background of the drawing, & selecting properties)


tol_display yes
