I found them all by googling. But you don't need to do it by yourself - I'll send you a private message later today with the links I found. Thanks! :) Looks good, only one remark: What do we do with the case that e.g. the overtolerance is arbitrary but not the undertolerance? I would say we should ...

See my latest post. Besides this, I think it is best to look at the standards because there are so many buggy manuals around. Standards/norm are exactly there to uniform all the different best-practices. That is true, but unfortunately I don't have an access to the standards. Good thing that appare...

So I was wrong all the years :oops: and your fix to this is correct. Okay, no worries! Besides, you raised on important point: What if a unit schema puts up "degr" without the MultiUnitSchema as the angular unit? I'm not actually sure, if the "degr" should be repeated or not? It depends on whether ...

Where is this defined? Up to now in all my work positions, at the university and industry, the degrees was treated as a normal unit. Only for typesetting the ° is an exception since there is no half-space between the number and the unit while this is the case or all other units. In FC we have diffe...

IMHO fixing that major design flaw is not desired for some reason. Perhaps once fixed FC would become a serious competitor for some commercial CAD systems. I bet they will/cannot answer to a question, which could lead to a more efficient development of FC. Nah, it's not that. I think the problem is...

I think PR 4314 solves the issue, but would appreciate other testers. Thanks!

Great job, thank you very much!

I don't see a bug as it is. There must only be ne unit, so either 12.50 mm or 12.50 ± 0.50 mm 15 ° or 15 ± 1° Why do you think it must be 12.50 mm ± 0.50 mm This is only necessary when the units are different but the standard recommend to use the same unit if possible. So 12.50 cm ± 0.50 mm is poss...

Is there a list somewhere of what can be used? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printf_format_string With the TechDraw Dimensions, you are restricted to floating-point numbers, i.e. f, g, and e. But I thing that most of the flags and field stuff might work. If not, it can most likely be fixed! :D

Great, thanks! I went through preferences but missed that. I set it to "%.6g" as a safe default. (%.2g will produce "1e+02" instead of "100") It's also possible to put "%g" there, it'd give you as many significant digits as possible, but still cut the trailing zeros away. The problem is that if you...
