It works fine just one thing why is it not possible to change the tolerance input,as an example when i enter 0.5 it comes in at .5. What i would like is it to read 0.5.

Also the box with the datum  ie A,B OR C ETC is less wide than the symbol box,one would expect it to be square.

Any suggestions or is this the inventor default.

I have no problems with the tolerance, so you might have to check your styles to see if leading zero's are disabled.
(right click the frame and select "edit feature control frame style")

As for the width, i can only guess that it's related to the text/font.
There are some setting for that as well (like "scale to text height"), but you'll have to see if those help get the result you want.

I believe if you go into your Settings and change the no zero to zero in front you should get your zero in front of your number.

Sorry.  The leading or trailing zeros...
