About Framed/Basic Dimensions

You can create framed/basic dimensions manually from the following contexts.

• Partial Surfaces, where framed/basic dimensions define the partial surface dimensions and location.
• Datum targets, where framed/basic dimensions define the datum target location from another datum target or geometrical elements.
• Datum reference frames, where framed/basic dimensions define the datum reference frame location from reference elements or representing constructed geometry.
• Geometrical tolerances:
  
  • Position
  • Angularity
  • Surface profile
  • Line Profile

  where framed/basic dimensions define the toleranced element location from references in the datum reference frame.

You can create framed/basic dimensions automatically from the following contexts.

• Localization geometrical tolerance without datum reference frame and applied to:
  
  • A circular or rectangular pattern of cylindrical features.
  • A circular or rectangular pattern of constructed geometries for thread representations.
