Drawing table with dimensions names and values with/without tolerances

Hi everyone,

I woiuld like to have on my drawing a drawing table with two columns.

In the first cloumn I would like to show the drawing dimension name (coming from the drawing) and in the second one to show the dimension value with/without tolerances (also coming from the drawing, not from the model).

Thanks in advance.

How do you get the drawing dimension name? Do you mean the d# assigned to the dimension?

The dimension values can only be shown once on a drawing, either as a dimension on the edge of the part or in a table. PTC considers it double dimensioning to allow a dimension to be shown in both places.

Build a table and populate it with dimension values and you will see what I mean.

Hi,

the ability to create such a table is not implemented in Creo. User can develop an add-on application providing such functionality using Creo Toolkit (I am not sure if J-Link -or- VB API enables it).
