    Repetitive Datum callout

    If the part is complex shape drawing is more than one sheet, Datum’s can be called out more than once to make it clearer. When calling same datum in other view should have “Ref” under datum callout?. I have drawing in which Datum A is called out with Flatness in view. In other Just Datum A is...
