Straightness
geometric tolerance
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 1.
Open public_documents\samples\tutorial\api\plate_tolstatus.sldprt.
// 2.
Open the DimXpert toolbar from View > Toolbars
// (select the first instance

// e.
Find the following in the DimXpert tree:
AngleBetween1.
// 5.
Create line profile and straightness geometric tolerances:
// a.
Click Geometric Tolerance on the DimXpert toolbar.
// In
the Geometric Tolerance Properties dialog:
// i. Select
