In the Dimension
PropertyManager, you can configure the precision of dimensions and tolerances. In design
tables, you can configure the precision of tolerances.
To configure
precision of dimensions and tolerances:
- In the Dimension PropertyManager, under
Tolerance/Precision, specify a tolerance type and maximum
and minimum variations.
- For Unit Precision, specify the number of decimal places for the
dimension value.
- For Tolerance Precision, specify the number of decimal places for the
tolerance value.
- Click Configurations.
- In the dialog box, select This configuration, All
configurations, or Specify
configurations.
Configuring the Precision of Tolerances in Design Tables
In design tables, tol_precision is a new keyword for the
existing column header $TOLERANCE@Dimension.
Tol_precision specifies the number of
decimal places for the tolerance value. Valid values: integers from 1 through 8
and NOM. Using NOM makes the value match the dimension precision, and is the same
as selecting Same as nominal in the
PropertyManager. To use the value specified in Document
Properties, omit the parameter.

tolerance (highlighted in yellow):
