Question

Drafted Hole as Datum using GD&T Advisor

Hi,

I'm currently using Creo 9. I'm trying to make a drafted Hole as Datum B using GD&T Advisor. First, it only gives options to add Datum Targets as "Targets" tab turns red (see Image 1). After going in to the Target tab, I'm able to select "User-Defined Axis" option and then select the axis of the said hole. However, this option doesn't allow me to use position/perpendicular geometric characteristic for tolerance. The only available options are Straightness, Circularity, Profile of Surface & Angularity (see Image 2).

 

I'm looking for a right way to add a position/perpendicularity tolerance w.r.t Datum A (bottom surface of the block).
