Good morning to all,
I am a user of autocad 2020 (in English) and I am encountering a problem for which I would like to understand if there is a faster solution than I found.
I am building a sort of library of drawings of mechanical details having similar geometric shapes. I created a parametric block in which the dimensions of all models are inserted in a block table (block table) with a grip for which I choose the code of the particular mechanic and geometry, quotas and sectional restraints change according to the inserted dimensions. This block, however, I need to create constructive drawings so together with quotas I must also include dimensional tolerances and geometric tolerances. the values of dimensional and geometric tolerances depend on the size of the particular mechanic, therefore they are not the same for all models.
exists a method that allows me to insert the values of dimensional tolerances and geometric tolerances in the block table so that, chosen the code of the particular mechanic, you get the design with the correct values of tolerances? the tolerance fields of the properties of the quotas accept only numerical values and, therefore, it seems not possible to enter the name of a parameter defined ad hoc.
the only alternative method that came to mind is to insert the quotas as geometric entities (exploding the quotas) bound in position with respect to the particular mechanic and inserting "text boxes" (it is definitely not the correct term; I apologize) for the values of the quotas and tolerances that are updated with the values of the variables inserted in the "block table". As much as this method can be a solution, I was wondering if there was something more "clean" and fast and that would allow me to maintain the integrity of quotas.
Thank you.
