The objects this property applies to.

Property Value

Read-only: No

Type: Double

The tolerance lower limit.

Remarks

The initial value for this property is 0.0000.

This property is only available when the ToleranceDisplay property is set to acTolSymmetrical, acTolDeviation, or acTolLimits.

Examples

VBA:

Sub Example_ToleranceLowerLimit()
    ' This example creates an aligned dimension in model space and
    ' sets the tolerance limits using the ToleranceLowerLimit and
    ' ToleranceUpperLimit properties

    Dim dimObj As AcadDimAligned
    Dim newText As AcadTextStyle
    Dim point1(0 To 2) As Double, point2(0 To 2) As Double
    Dim location(0 To 2) As Double
    
    ' Define the dimension
    point1(0) = 5: point1(1) = 5: point1(2) = 0
    point2(0) = 5.5: point2(1) = 5: point2(2) = 0
    location(0) = 5: location(1) = 7: location(2) = 0
    
    ' Create an aligned dimension object in model space
    Set dimObj = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.AddDimAligned(point1, point2, location)
    
    ' Turn on tolerance display
    dimObj.ToleranceDisplay = acTolSymmetrical
    
    ThisDrawing.Application.ZoomAll
    
    ' Read and display the tolerance limits for the dimension
    MsgBox "The tolerance lower limit is set to: " & dimObj.ToleranceLowerLimit & vbCrLf & _
           "The tolerance upper limit is set to: " & dimObj.ToleranceUpperLimit
    
    ' Adjust the tolerance limits for this dimension
    dimObj.ToleranceLowerLimit = 0.0001
    dimObj.ToleranceUpperLimit = 0.005
    
    ThisDrawing.Regen acAllViewports
    
    ' Read and display the tolerance limits for the dimension
    MsgBox "The tolerance lower limit is now set to: " & dimObj.ToleranceLowerLimit & vbCrLf & _
           "The tolerance upper limit is now set to: " & dimObj.ToleranceUpperLimit
