Display tolerance as column in part navigator?
Display tolerance as column in part navigator?
(OP)
Hello all,
Sometimes I tighten the tolerance for specific features to increase the accuracy of surfaces, other times I loosen them to enable features to work. However, recently I ended up with a solid body with strange jagged edges which failed to export as a solid in a STEP file. This indicates some tolerances are too loose. The details pane at the bottom of the part navigator does not display tolerances, so to solve the problem I had to open every feature to see which tolerance was too high (because I couldn't remember which features I had changed the tolerances).
To make this easier, is there a way to display the tolerance of each feature in a column in the part navigator? Or a command to give a listing of all features with tolerances?
