Hello,

Aside from adding tolerances in the Sketcher (by double clicking the desired dimension and then right clicking in the value field and choosing add tolerance), I want to be able to see the added tolerances in the sketcher.

I have attached a picture and you can see how I want my tolerances to appear, and on the right part of the picture, I have marked a curious symbol that I think when I have figured out how to make the tolerances visible it would show up on the dialog box. Please tell me how I can do that.

Well, I think I have hit a bug issue in Catia.

The answer: If you use Equivalent Dimensions in the sketcher and you want to add tolerances, well you can never do that but if you first add your desired tolerances and then add the Equivalent Dimensions, then everything works fine.

Anyway the problem is now fixed for me.
