When I am useing the smart dimention function on the 2011 version of solid works I see <MOD-DIAM><DIM> Showing up in the sketch screen itself. I have attached a screem cap of this issue and any help would be greatly apricated as I am currently trying to finish a college project.
That's not a dimension name. That's the tag for the diameter symbol, which means Solidworks isn't reading your GTOL.sym file.
Try restarting Solidworks and if that doesn't work, check you Solidworks program folder under \lang\english to make sure the file is there and hasn't been renamed.
This issue comes up on occasion, so if you search gtol.sym, you'll find other people who've had this problem.....and stop spelling dimension, 'dimention' You're messing up my chi.
