geometric tolerance symbols and placement

mbostonsprint — Tue, 23 Jul 2019 20:58:27 GMT

There is a decent library of GD&T symbols available in Fusion, but seemingly limited options for placement of said symbols and associated info.

There are many applications where I would like to be able to place the feature control frame directly on a dimensional extension line, and also treat the datum identifier the same way. I don't see that there is any option for this. It would also be nice to be able to generate a feature control frame without having to actually pick a modeled feature, and then move it to some sensible location around the basic dimensional callout, in the case of "difficult" geometry.

Fusion 360 does not allow dimensions reading from the right of the page so GD&T symbols located on horizontal extension lines will be on a leader. These symbols can lie directly on the extension line that is vertical to the base of the drawing.

Thanks for the input. Your comments are what I also generally discovered as limitations.
