    Display Limit Tolerance On One Line

    In the drawing setup (Menu: Advanced/Draw Setup) you should set 'text orientation' to one of the horizontal modes, e.g. iso_parallel_diam_horiz or ansi_parallel_diam_horiz, in order to achieve this effect. This works in 2001 and Wildfire. Andrea

    LIMIT TOLERANCES

    Does anyone know if it is possible to show limits on a dimension one above the other rather than in a line as is the default. I can find no options in the drawing set up file or the config.pro. I am using Wildfire. Thank you Andrea

    Skeleton model

    I found the answer! You can only modify a skeleton within the basic assembly package NOT create one. Why don't PTC tell you this in the help section? I have found the control skeleton part which I can now modify. Andrea

    Skeleton model

    I would like to create a skeleton model as a base for an assembly. The problem is that the Skeleton option in the create component box is greyed out. Does anyone know why this is? (I,m using Wildfire) Thanx Andrea

    colour of iges import

    It seems that it is only possible to re-colour the surfaces of an iges import and not the part as a whole. This is long winded and therefore, time consuming! I just wondered if anyone knew of another way. Andrea
