option for adding Geo Tol

[cam721]

What is the setting or option that you need to apply in order to add Geometric Tolerances to a created dimension (as opposed to a shown dimension).

Some other items from the Help Files

Placement—Places the geometric tolerance in the drawing. Click Place geometric tolerance and select an item from the Type list:

Dimension—Attaches the geometric tolerance to a dimension. The drawing setup file option gtol_dim_placement determines its location below the dimension. You can attach multiple gtols (stacked) to the same dimension, and they behave as a single tolerance when you manipulate the dimension symbol.

Datum—Attaches the geometric tolerance to a datum. If the geometric tolerance is already attached directly to a datum, the system selects this item for you.

Leaders—Attaches the geometric tolerance to multiple edges (including datum quilt edges) with leader lines or to dimension witness lines.

Free Note—Places the geometric tolerance anywhere on the drawing. In Part mode, you cannot display free gtols that were created in Drawing mode. You can use Free Note placement only when you have selected The Drawing from the Model list as the top model.

Normal Leader—Attaches the geometric tolerance to an edge along a leader line that is perpendicular to the selected edge.

Tangent Leader—Attaches the geometric tolerance to an edge along a leader line that is tangent to the selected edge, orienting the geometric tolerance text box at the same angle as the leader.

Other Gtol—Attaches the new geometric tolerance to an existing one (you cannot attach the existing geometric tolerance to a dimension).

Dim Related—Relates a geometric tolerance to specified dimension text. Select this item from the Type list; then select dimension text and a location relative to the text. To relate an existing free geometric tolerance to dimension text, choose TOOLS > Relate Obj.

Make Dim—Creates a driven dimension and attaches the dimension to it. This dimension belongs to the drawing. The geometric tolerance appears in standard dimension format, but with the geometric tolerance instead of a dimension value.
