Hi everybody,
i started to use Inventor and i'm trying to use geometric tolerances. I have a problem with GD&T symbol, when i select one of them the software doesn't show it. As you can see in the picture Inventor shows the tolerance (50) and the datum(A) but not the position symbol. Can anyone solve this problem?

What version of Inventor are you using? This almost looks like a graphics problem. What are your computer specs and what kind of graphics adapter are you using? Are all drivers up to date?

Depress the position tolerance button and select a different symbol. Does that one show up?
If so, edit the feature control frame and see of you can get the position tolerance now.

What version of the software are you using?
Couple of possibilities with this issue:
1. The install path was different from what the software expected/anticipated and it can't find the font.
2. The AIGDT Regular font was not installed. Inventor uses a GD&T font that contains the symbol characters.
Check the installed fonts to see if it is there. If not, then the font needs to be installed. If it is installed, I'd be inclined to say it is an install path issue.
