Tolerancing & Templates
Filters tab
Filters are conditions (or sets of conditions) that determine what features appear
(or do not appear) on a template. Use the filters tab to establish the conditions
features must meet to be included or excluded from the template.
For example, if a part drawing calls for a circle to have a diameter of 0.375
inches with a tolerance of 0.006 inches, you can create a template that displays
only circles with a diameter greater than 0.381 inches or less than 0.370 inches.
This filter allows the user to track features that fail to meet specifications with-
out having to sort through all the features.
