I'm trying to change the angular tolerance to 2 decimal place. When I edit the value on screen at the bottom right I can type in 0.25 as an example but it is clearly changing the tolerance only 0.0. I thought if I type in 2 decimal places it would change the setting, since I couldn't find where to add 2 decimal places.
I tried changing it in my configuration editor to 0.25 with no success. The reason I know it's not working properly is because when I read it in my drawing using "&angular_tol_0_00" it displays 0.50. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
Yes, that's correct about new parts. Unfortunately, I am updating existing parts.
If I'm understanding you correctly you want me to add a second angular tolerance below to get the 2 decimal places.
Right now (picture below) it has angular_tol_0_0, but I need to add angular_tol_0_00. How do I do that?
You add an annotation element to the screen for a note that has &angular_tol_0_00 from the annotate tab. I don't believe there is a way to add it to the list of tolerances displayed at the bottom of the screen.
On your Annotate tab there should be a selection for Flat to Screen in the Annotation Planes section. Create a Annotation Feature, in the dialog select the Note icon, in the text area add &angular_tol_0_00 along with any other text you want, and select Place to place the note (you may need to change the leader selection).
Config parameters linear_tol_0.xxx and angular tol_0.xxx only take integer values (0-9).
So I prefer to use config parameters linear_tol and angular_tol. Because they are more flexible.
And as it was mentioned before, the tolerance values from config are applied only to new/empty parts.
The default values in config will not matter, if you use a template.
