Description
The ISO GPS standard supports both full and simplified dimensioning schema for hole callouts in multi-element holes (for example, counter bore/sink or threads). GD&T Advisor now supports the simplified schema for ISO models (already supported for ASME models).
The combined simplified hole callout is enabled using a new XML tag Combined_ISO_hole_notes set to YES in the application options file GDTAAppOptions.xml.
Using this option, ISO users will be able to specify callouts for their hole features while making sure that the multiple specifications are shown as combined.
Combined_ISO_hole_notes = No
Combined_ISO_hole_notes = Yes
Benefits
Improved readability of hole callouts, reduced clutter of annotations in the Model-Based Definition model, and improved compliance with the ISO standards.
Additional Information
Tips: | None. |
Limitations: | No known limitations. |
Does this replace existing functionality? | No. |
Configuration option associated with this functionality: | Legacy models with existing hole callouts continue to show the full dimensioning schema if the new XML option Combined_ISO_hole_notes is set to NO. When it is set to YES, GD&T Advisor updates the hole callout schemas during its verification. |
