Hello,

We just updated to 2016 sp5 and now our GTOL.SYM is not quite right.

I renamed GTOL97.sym to GTOL.sym and pointed the file location to the renamed file, then restarted SW.

When I opened up a drawing and clicked a dimension, I was able to add diameter symbols, centre-line symbols, etc. to my heart's content.

However, when I click the Geometric Tolerance button at the top of the screen and click the drop-down menu for Symbol, whichever symbol I select brings up the old warning:

Symbol library file (GTOL.SYM) is missing. etc.

My colleague has the same problem on his machine.

I'm stuck now.

Any ideas?

John
