Dear all,


Anybody knows, to hide the display of geometry tolerance(annotation) in part mode in wildfire3?


The geometry tolerance in drg should remain. Only it is need to be hided in model.


THanks
 
try "tools - enviroment" , and uncheck "3d notes" , it might help .

Thanks for the responses.


I tried both by unchecking the 3d notes & dimension tolerance from tools-environment.


But doesn't work.
 
Hiding a layer in the model does not hide a layer in the drawing.


Try it. Turn all your layer control icons to on. Open your model and hide all layers. Go to you drawing and all the layers will be on. Go to layers in your drawing and hide them and look what happens. Magic!


And to re-iterate what dr_gallup said, learn to use layers, you may think you do , but you don't.


Look for a thread on Mastering Layers, its well worth the 30 minute read

optn1: creat default layer for gtols


in your config.pro set definition for a layer in the value field as


:layer_gtol GEOMETRIC_TOLERANCES


(another way of doing this, without a pro/E session is to open your config.pro in note pad and adding the above line)


___________________________________________


optn2: creat a rule based layer and set the rule as:


look for : Geometric Tolerance


look by: Geometric Tolerance


on the history tab set select ALL (radio button)


on the layer properties window click on options button and select associative features already created will also be included to the layer satisfying the rule.


_________________________________________________


also you can creat layer rule to include all types of annotations


look for : annotations


look by: annotations


on history tab: all





hide this layer in part and unhide in the drawing and save layer status to have current display status be available in the next pro/E session.


thnx
