Geometric Tolerance Properties

Specify the following properties when you create a geometric tolerance symbol.

To specify geometric tolerance properties, do one of the following:

• For parts, click Geometric Tolerance (MBD Dimension toolbar) or Tools > MBD Dimension > Geometric Tolerance.
• For drawings, click Geometric Tolerance (Annotation toolbar) or Insert > Annotations > Geometric Tolerance.

Symbol

Select a symbol.

Straightness	Flatness	Circularity	Cylindricity	Profile of Line
Profile of Surface	Parallel	Perpendicular	Angularity	Circular Runout
Total Runout	Position	Concentricity	Symmetry	None

Material Conditions

Select a material condition. The pointer must be in a Tolerance or Primary, Secondary, or Tertiary box to insert a material condition.

Diameter	Spherical Diameter	Maximum Material Condition
Least Material Condition	Regardless of Feature Size	Tangent Plane
Free State	Statistical	Projected Tolerance
Square	Unequally Disposed Profile	Translation

Height

If you click Projected Tolerance , enter a projected tolerance zone (PTZ) in Height.

Tolerances

Type tolerance values for Tolerance 1 and Tolerance 2.

Unit Basis Tolerance

You can apply flatness and straightness tolerances on a unit basis. You apply a unit basis tolerance by following the tolerance value with a forward slash (/) and entering the per-unit area or per-unit length criteria.

Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary

Enter datum names and material condition symbols for the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary datums.

Frames

Create additional frames. You can define as many frames as required. Use the Frames box to move among frames. You can see only two frames in the dialog box at a time.

Composite Frame

Combines the symbols of two frames.

Below Frame

Add text below the feature control frame.

Between Two Points

Type the labels of the points if the tolerance value applies between two points or entities.
