Which role is line 4 of FCF?

Yanhua,

Line 4 is for notes.  In PC-DMIS this line defaults to the feature control frame id, but the user can override this with any text.  On CAD models this could be used for instructions such as SEP REQT so I think this should be handled by the Inspection Planner.

Don

Don,

Which role is line 4 of FCF?

Paul,
Thanks.

Has Line 4 (shown in red rectangle) been defined in CCadToleranceData?  Where is it?

Yanhua,

The text you have circled is simply lines of text that is stored in the CCadToleranceData::m_textArray member.

Yanhua,

Your IP file has this FCF command:

FCF/FCF1,POS(TOL(DIA,0.01000,MMC),DAT(A),DAT(B),DAT(C)),DAT(C)POS(TOL(DIA,0.02000),DAT(A)),SIZE(DIA,25.400000,0.010000,0.010000),{PAUL, HERE},FEAT(CYL1,CYL2),UID(3238074331364556553);

You are using the [,{text}] option of the FCF command. Do we really need to support text in the tolerance FCF? I haven't seen any CAD models with text below the FCF. (When I say CAD models, I don't mean PC-DMIS .cad files. I am referring to files from CATIA 5, UG, ProE, etc.) If this is not used in industry, why do we need to support it? I propose that the [,{text}] option be removed from the FCF IP command.

Porter,

Could a CIPTolerance (IP tolerance command) support to export a composite tolerance (two line tolerance example is drawn by Paul) into IP file? What is the initial design?

// Example of a CCadToleranceData object:

//

//                                  CCadDatumRefData

//                                         |

//                                       /---\

//                     /  ---------------------------        

//                     |  |  |  |  0.5  |  A  |  B  |        \

//                     |  | -0- |--------------------        |--  CCadToleranceContainer

// CCadToleranceData --|  |  |  |  0.3  |  B  |              /

//                     |  ---------------------------------

//                     |  | //  |  0.1  |  A  |  B  |  C  |  >--  CCadToleranceContainer

//                     \  ---------------------------------

//                               \-----------------------/

//                                           |

//                               CCadToleranceSpecification   

Has this following work been completed after CCadToleranceData structure was updated by Paul?/

// reference code from t:\V44B\INSPECTIONPLANNER\GDTSELDLG.CPP

BOOL CGdtSelDlg::GetRequiredCommandsTolerance(CCadToleranceData tolData,

#pragma message ("orter Bassett: Please modify to handle new CCadToleranceData structure.")
