Add tolerance onto second line

I have a drawing I am trying to ordinate dimension and I was wondering if it was possible to place a symetric tolerance for a dimension on a second line under the actual dimension?

Can you post an image of something similar?

What standard do you use? (ex I use ANSI/ASME Y14)

I want to add the +/- .002 under the 5.090 because of space constraints. I have seen it done before, unfortunately I cant find an example right now.

We typically follow ASME Y14.41, but this is an internal drawing.

I assume you can't simply add the ±.002 like you did the 2x because of violation of standard.

Is that correct?

Thank you, That is absolutely something I could do that (I feel kind of silly for not thinking of that).

Is there any known way within Inventor?

I looked around and didn't find any other way than a manual edit.

Not sure if there is another way or not.

I am manually entering the tolerance anyways so I dont see any reason why I can't do this.

Thank You.
