To activate the tolerance tool  see Working with Geomet Tolerance Windows

Figures 1 and 2 show Bilateral Tolerance on Cartesian and Polar formats respectively. To better understand how these formats are used and interpreted, refer to Introduction to Tolerancing.

Figures 3 and 4 show Positional Tolerance on Cartesian and Polar formats respectively. To better understand how these formats are used and interpreted, refer to Introduction to Tolerance. Circles may also utilize Datum Bonus Tolerance when established in the current PCS.
