Drawing table listing dimensions and its tolerances

[MatthewV]

Hello !

I am using Creo 7.0.7.0

I am looking for a way to add a drawing table with specific dimensions for which we request inspection. I have manually made this table :

I am looking for a way to automatically fill this table : the idea would be to refer the dimensions that need to be inspected somewere and that it fills the table and extract the minimum tolerance and maximum tolerance. Also it would be great if this table would update as the dimension or tolerances are updated. 

Is there a way to do that with Creo maybe with a drawing table, parameters and a repeat region ?

The only way to do this that I am aware of is a round about away. You can copy the tolerance into a parameter and then show that parameter on the drawing:

This article says it isn't possible in a repeat region: CS98437

The idea for this has been archived (meaning it won't be implemented)

This is one area where the parametric design of Creo is a hinderance.

When we used Unigraphics, we had a GRIP program that would gather all dimensions on a drawing and build a table showing the metric value with the converted english value. This was to allow the machine shop to use their existing measuring tools while engineering designed everything in metric. When we switched to Wildfire, we tried something similar, but when we grabbed a dimension for the table, it would give us the symbolic name and then error with a message that a dimension may not be used twice in the same drawing.

Hi,

I guess the only way is developing Toolkit application.

I saw that there is an option to mark dimensions for inspection (checkbox in display field of a dimension) is there a way maybe to use this to create this table ?
