These options define the tolerance type and values to apply to newly created size dimensions, including dimensions created with the Size Dimension and Auto Dimension Scheme tools.

These options do not affect pre-existing features, dimensions, or tolerances.

Counterbore diameter (counterbore portion of counterbore hole)

 

 

Countersink diameter

 

 

Countersink angle

Width - slot/notch/width

 

 

Depth (counterbore, counterbore hole, countersink, notch, pocket, simple hole, slot)

Tolerance Type Options

  • Symmetric. Value is interpreted as plus and minus

  • Bilateral. Values are added or subtracted from the feature's nominal size

  • Block. Number of decimal places

  • General

Block or General appears based on whether you select Block Tolerance or General Tolerance for the DimXpert Method. See Tools, Options, Document Properties, DimXpert .
