    Profile Tolerance in General Note

    Let's take an example with a defined feature. Let's say a cube with a single hole going through it, with defined planes as datum A,B,C, and the hole position defined in reference to those planes. Same notes as above. Thus the planes that form the cube are governed only by the profile note...

    Profile Tolerance in General Note

    Failed to mention that drawing also references ASME Y14.41, which states per 9.2.1 "Queried model values shall be interpreted as basic dimensions unless superceded by a toleranced dimension or defined as a reference dimension." Thus we don't have a separate note or show any basic dimensions...

    Catia v5r22, exporting assembly STEP file alwyas empty?

    Using Catia v5r22 with ST1 license... I have a relatively simple assembly I am trying to export as a STEP file. The file size is really small (20kb), and when I import it back in, only the assembly structure is there but no geometry. If I export the parts individually they work fine, and when...
