Composite Properties Section (#~42)

This section contains the following entities:

DTV (Dimension Tolerance Value)

This entity contains the internal values and displayed values of upper and lower tolerance text. The value of one of the parameters indicates whether the tolerance is valid, and whether it has been edited.

Each dimension entity may contain a maximum of two dimension tolerance codes. If the code is greater than zero a DTV is referenced.

Several dimension entities may reference the same DTV, and a dimension entity may reference the same DTV more than once.

Pointer Tree


Figure 33. Pointer Tree for DTV

Identification Data

DTV Entity type.
n+ Sequence number.

Attribute Data

No Attribute Data.

Property Data

No Property Data.

Parameter Data

7 Parameter count.

REAL Upper Tolerance Value.
REAL Lower Tolerance Value.
  These are the tolerance values stored internally by the system.

n+ Tolerance Valid and Edited Code. A tolerance can be edited to show any value. This means that the user can replace the tolerance value calculated by the system with a new value. This parameter indicates whether or not the value has been edited and whether or not the tolerance value is valid. A tolerance value is valid if it is not edited and compatible with the dimension value.

  This code is the sum of the following components:

  0 = Upper tolerance is not valid
  or

  1 = Upper tolerance is valid

  Plus:

  0 = Lower tolerance is not valid
  or

  2 = Lower tolerance is valid

  Plus:

  0 = Upper tolerance has not been edited
  or

  4 = Upper tolerance has been edited

  Plus:

  0 = Lower tolerance has not been edited
  or

  8 = Lower tolerance has been edited

STRING Upper Tolerance Text.

STRING Lower Tolerance Text.

  These are the tolerance text strings that are displayed on the screen. They can be edited by the user.

PTR Pointer to DTF.

PTR Pointer to DTA.

ATNS (Associated Text Name Space)

This composite property represents a namespace for ASSP properties. It defines the namespace name and refers to all ASSP records that belong to this namespace.

Any number of ATNS properties may be defined,as long as the namespaces they define are unique. Each ASSP property belongs to exactly one ATNS compound property. All defined namespaces are stored to file even if infotext list is empty.

Identification data

ATNS Entity type.
n+ Entity Sequence Number.

Attribute data

STRING Namespace name. Names are case sensitive. Global namespace has empty name.

Property Data

No property data.

Parameter data

n+ Parameter count. Note that this value is set to zero if no stored elements have any infotextswithin this name space.
PTR... n pointers to ASSP elements that belong to this namespace.
