Hi,
I have noticed (after upgrading to 2015) that when I dimension a circle it has <mod - diam> before the required dimension.
Normal linear dimensions are ok.
How do I stop this showing when dimensioning circles.
If I use the insert model dimension function, this additional info also come in.
This has only started to happen in 2015.
Thanks

that is the name SW uses for the diameter symbol. it would appear that SW is having trouble finding the symbol library file. I believe 2015 added that as something you can set the location of in the system options - check t make sure it is pointing to a valid location with a valid file.
Hi Jeremy,
What would be a valid file for these dimensions, what would it be called under file location.
Thanks
Mark
we are not on 2015 yet, so I am uncertain on the system option, but I believe it would be under file locations. the file name is GTOL.sym. (at least in 2014)
Hi Mark,
The default location is here > C:\ProgramData\SolidWorks\SOLIDWORKS 2015\lang\english
I've attached the default gtol.sym file for you as well in case yours is lost, deleted, or corrupted for some reason.

Thanks Jody,
I did get my VAR to sort this out.
But you get the correct answer as you solution is what he did to fix it.
Thanks
