Limiting Geometric Tolerances to a Standard

You can choose all symbols for geometric tolerances or limit symbols to a standard with the Allow tolerance symbols for all drafting standards option.

For example, if you select the ISO standard and clear Allow tolerance symbols for all drafting standards, you limit the symbols and values to ISO standards.

If you select Allow tolerance symbols for all drafting standards, all symbols and values are available regardless of the tolerancing standard.

To limit geometric tolerances to a standard:

  1. In a drawing, click Tools > Options > Document Properties > Annotations > Geometric Tolerances.
  2. Under Base geometric tolerance standard, select:
    1. A standard.
    2. Clear Allow tolerance symbols for all drafting standards.
