Automating Tolerances

I have a diameter 'D'.

The tolerance is always +0.000 -0.01D

Is it possible to define tolerances in a way that will calculate 0.01D?

Thanks

No there is no direct way to do it. Not sure if it can be achieved via a macro.

It can be done using a a macro, if you need to change the tolerence of all dimensions in a current drawing.

Use 'DimensionTolerance' class. Let me know if you want to make a macro. I'll give it a try.

 
Suloke,

Thanks for the tip. I know nothing about macro's so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
