Description
The 
Templater ToleranceFrame tool creates a tolerance frame or a datum frame as an SVG file and adds it to the selected view.

Usage

- There are several ways to invoke the tool.
- Press the Tolerance Frame button.
- Select the Templater → Tolerance Frame option from the menu.

- The Feature frame settings task panel opens.

- Optionally edit each datum field, leave empty if not needed and succeeding fields will be ignored.
- Click Ok to close the task panel and finish the tool.
- A NewSymbol.svg file will be saved in the .../Mod/Templater/Resources folder and added to the selected view as a new FeatureFrame object.
- Drag the FeatureFrame object to its final position.
- Optionally adjust its values by editing the DataEditable Texts property in the Property View
Task Panel
- Tolerance type: Sets the tolerance symbol in the first cell of a tolerance frame, or the single letter in the only cell of a datum frame.
- Tolerance value: Sets the tolerance value in the second cell (and offers some predefined entries to have the diameter symbol at hand).
- Datum1: Sets the first datum marker in the third cell. Values in following cells will be ignored if empty.
- Datum2: Sets the second datum marker in the fourth cell. A value in following cell will be ignored if empty.
- Datum3: Sets the third datum marker in the fifth cell.
Notes
- The widths of the cells are calculated on creation and cannot be altered afterwards.
- All texts in the cells are editable, in contrast the tolerance synbols are hard coded svg elements and cannot neither be edited nor swapped.
