It seems some one has changed the default tolerance on a single part so that the 3 place tolerance is +/-.001, where it should be +/-.005. For the life of me, I can't remember how to change it back. I used to be able to directly click on it in WF3, but haven't had to contend with this problem since moving to Creo 3. Normally I won't care so much, but these values are reflected in the drawing tolerance block, and the design intent doesn't require that tight of a tolerance globally. What's odd, is that it was only changed on this specific part.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Figured it out. If tol display is turned on, you can open the corresponding value in the drawing and change it. I knew there was a simple fix. I was trying to solve it from the part side, hence my frustration.

Mike,
Thanks for marking your answer correct as it helps everyone with the same question.
Best,

Was the original part made by you? If not, then the person who made it might not have a config.pro that sets the tolerances to specific values. I think the default has been 0.001 inch forever.
No, the original part was made by some one else, but it's part of a larger database which all has X.XXX = +/- .005. As far as I remember, this has always been the default.
