When attempting to create a position Geometric Tolerance command, I receive the error seen below. The constructed width is 2D (constructed from two parallel lines), but I'm receiving an error related to datum features before a datum feature is even defined. Is this behavior expected? I can make the error go away by choosing a primary datum that is nominally coplanar to the considered feature, but that is not what the drawing requires. If I need to measure the width as a 3D width, I can add some more hit data.
Hi
JacobCheverie you are seeing the error because it is a 2D width. Generally, when 2D features are referenced without any datums, the GD&T library needs a "workplane" to set the orientation. Providing that workplane in the form of a primary datum or measuring the feature as a 3D width will resolve the problem.
