Limits display in drawings

[JWayman]

Hello,
When I show a tolerance as 'limits' in a drawing, the result shows up as:

19.095 - 20.020

for example.


I was expecting it to look more like:

20.020
19.095


I have searched all the config.pro and drawing options information I have,
but I can't figure out how to change this.
Any ideas?

In fact, if you have a one-page summary showing the differences between all
the tolerance display combinations of ASME, ANSI, ISO, JIS and Uncle Tom
Cobley and all, I would be very interested to see it.

Thanks,


John

Drawing options file setting:

text_orientation horizontal

Your setting is set to parallel.

Text orientation won't fix this, I don't think.

I am guessing you have your drawings set up for dual dimensioning. When
you show secondary units, limit dimensions show up one after the other
instead of one on top of the other. There's no way to change it, it is
the dreaded intended functionality. Enter an enhancement request is my
only suggestion...

For us, we get

20,020
19,095

if we use a Shaft or Hole tolerance table.

Otherwise, we get

19,095 - 20,020

Like you, we'd prefer the former...
