Introduction
Geomet applies tolerance to Line features which is limited to Bilateral / Linear. To
understand the basics of tolerance, please refer to
Introduction to
Tolerance in Geomet.
Tolerance of 2D Line features is limited to
Cartesian / Linear. The value reported
by a 2D line is where the intersection with a PCS axis takes place and is considered 1
dimensional. Therefore only bilateral tolerance inputs are allowed.

To activate the tolerance tool see
Working with Geomet Tolerance
Windows
Figure 1 shows the 2D Line Tolerance dialog which allows nominals entered for
position and corresponding angle. To better understand how these formats are
used and
interpreted, refer to
Introduction to Tolerance.
NOTE: When applying a tolerance to 2D Line features it is possible to switch the
reported pierce axis. If figure 1 in the "Select Pierce Point Axis" group, you
can switch between Primary and Secondary reporting axis.
Tolerance of 3D Line features is limited to Cartesian / Linear. The values reported
by a 3D line is where the intersection with a PCS base plane takes place and is considered
2 dimensional.

Figure 2 shows the 3D Line Tolerance dialog which allows nominal
data entered for a
2D position and corresponding angles. To better understand how these formats are
used and
interpreted, refer to
