GD&T Advisor Enhancement: Depth Reference is not Required if General Profile Tolerance is Defined
Creo+
User Interface Location: N/A
Description
Previously, users needed to explicitly constrain the reference plane before creating a functional feature for a tapered features; otherwise, the feature definition could not be complete.
If a general profile tolerance was defined for the model, users will no longer need to define the depth reference for tapered features that require an offset reference, which further reduces the time that it takes to define a functional feature.
The following image shows the improved workflow.

Benefits
