Catia V5 - Dimension management
Catia V5 - Dimension management
(OP)
Hi,
How could I get 1 or maximum 2 decimals on the value of both dimension, keeping three decimals on the tolerance?
(4.00 ± 0.127, instead of 4.000 ± 0.127)
I assume that I should use Properties, but I do not know how.......!
Thanks

What is the difference between having in 2D Drafting environment the Dimension System Selection Mode icon clicked and unclicked?
Thanks

Depends on the Drafting Standard you are following. I believe ANSI and ASME standards require the same number of decimal places on the dimension and it's tolerance. Not sure about ISO, but I know ISO doesn't include trailing zeros (so I guess you can have difference decimal places). Whichever way your company decides to do it, your CATIA Administrator will have to customize a standard in CATIA.
second question:
As you said, the Selection Mode allows you to define if you want to select the entire dimension system or only a sub-set of dimensions. By choosing, you can modify the entire system, or just a few dimensions; for example; change decimal places on all dimensions, add tolerance, delete entire system or just one dimension.
