Dual dimensions with tolerance
Dual dimensions with tolerance
(OP)
I have a drawing in SW 2003 with several dual dimensions. I would like to add tolerance to the base dimension (inches) but when I do SW adds the tolerance to the metric dimension also. Is there anyway to change this?
Thanks,

Deal with the software issues, they'll always be there.
Now repeat after me the Software God's prayer ...
Oh Great Software God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change ...
The courage to change the things I can ...
and the wisdom to know the difference.
Have a nice day ...

RE: Dual dimensions with tolerance
You can change where the dual dim comes up in your tools\options\document properties\detailing "Dual dimension display" either "On top" or "On the right". check the one you want to use
There is no option to turn off dual dimension tolerance for the metric. You make it with a tolerance they both update to it unless...You hand type the metric dim in above, below or on the same line. If you want that go to the properties of the dim and click on modify text and add there. Doing this it will not update if the dim changes.
Enhancement Request time!
