FT&A annotation Aerospace sheetmetal part

FT&A annotation Aerospace sheetmetal part

(OP)
Hello,

I have a sheetmetal part made with Aerospace sheetmetal function. Now in a flange that is planar it is possible to annotate the holes with FT&A but in a flange that is curved along a ruled surface I can not annotate the holes which are in that flange, the tolerancing advisor does not give me the option to choose diameter.

Somebody any idea

CATIAV5R17

regards
Marcel

Got the answer from another forum: the reason is because the holes in the curved flange are not cylindrical.
Solution I have is I draw a cylindrical surface inside the hole and I annotate that surface.

Another solution is to use a Leader Text to build a fake diam dimension.

and you must associate that circle to your feature for while you change the model the value will automatically change...even jakk had also the ultimate solution.
