Gurus:
Is it possible to edit the feature control frame of a hole in a
Wildfire drawing?
Every time I try to click-right-click properties
I only get the info on the hole dimension itself.

The only way I've found to edit this frame is to go into the model
and do edit > feature operations > gtol

Is there an easier way?

Thanks

Mike

Mike, I know that in WF2 the gtols show up in the model tree them selfs and can be changed from there. Try showing Annotations in your model tree. Then find the gtol by doing a switch symbol to get the gtols id and then that will tell you which one to modifiy on the model tree. Find it and the right hand mouse button and choose properties.

Hope this helps, Glenn |B)

The problem isn't editing the feature control frame, the problem is selecting it.
Two ways:
* Set the selection filter to gtol and pick it.
* Hover the cursor over the fcf, RMB 'Pick from list' and pick the gtol from
there.

Once selected, it should be no problem doing RMB 'Properties' and getting the fcf
input screen.

Guess I haven't done any geometric tolerancing in WF2 before. It's nice that this
kind of stuff is showingup in the model tree. And I'll have to get more into
annotation features as time goes on. They look to be pretty powerful for capturing
design intent. But I noticed, when I opened a drawing from previous version of
Pro/e, that those fcfs don't show up in the model tree. Only the ones created with
WF2. So you have to select them one of the "old" ways.

David, yah for older pre-WF models the gtol and certain annotation information doesn't show up in the model tree. Hey at least PTC is getting a clue, they still have a long way to go, but they are headed in the right direction.
