Set Datums

I am currently using creo 5. Previous version was 3 (M100). I used to have the ability to assign a set datum to a dimension. That functionality seems to have been moved or deleted. How can it be done in creo 5?

I'm not using Creo 5 but I remember from the sneak peek that there were significant differences.

Does this screenshot help?

hello ,

We are also facing  the same problem  ,since in creo 2 we have assign annotation on cylindrical surface and in drawing we have option to set datum on either dimension or gtolerance,but when we are opening the part in creo4 we are not getting that option available to set the datum to dimension or geometric tolerance. 

find image for reference . In creo 4 even not getting properties option on right click of datum

if any one has solution regarding the same kindly help to resolve the issue.

 

thanks in advance

This has been removed in Creo 4 and replaced with a completely different workflow.  Take a look at this article and the corresponding YouTube video:
