Introducing the Tolerancing Advisor

The Tolerancing Advisor lets you create semantic annotations by advising the annotations that can be created based on the selected element.


Before you begin: Open an existing 3D shape.
  1. Select the required surface.



  2. The Semantic Tolerancing Advisor dialog box is updated according to the selected surface.
    The Geometric tolerance and annotation creation commands frame contains:
    • The semantic annotations that will be created in relation with the selected element.
    • The Feature type list for all capabilities applying for the selection.
  3. Select All possible types to show all the possible commands applicable for the selected feature.

    The annotations with diamond symbol are applied to several geometrical elements.

    You can also select All possible types (default) to keep it as a default selection when you reopen the tolerancing advisor.

    Notes:
      • The same commands appear when you select All possible types (default) or All possible types.
      • All possible types does not appear in the list if only one geometrical feature type is proposed. This is because the selection of either of them, the geometrical feature type or the All possible types, gives the same commands.

  4. Click Text with Leader command.
  5. In the Text Editor dialog box, enter Milling.
  6. Click OK.
    The annotation text is created.



    The Semantic Tolerancing Advisor dialog box is updated.

    You can still create other annotations.

  7. Click Close in the Semantic Tolerancing Advisor dialog box.
