Problem Topic
TOL/POS: Clarification
Problem Description
Page 92
The description of TOL/POS says almost nothing about what it means. There is only a reference to ASME Y14.5M-1994. It would be helpful to have a description. For example, it seems implicit that for many (perhaps all) features, the thing that is being toleranced is a point of the feature, such as the center of a circle. This should be explicit. Many other aspects of TOL/POS should be explicit, too.

Resolution
Warning!!
The following statement is only a resolution to a Standard Improvement Request (SIR) and is NOT part of the current DMIS standard, nor is it guaranteed to become part of the next revision of the DMIS standard even if voted and accepted by the DMIS National Standards Committee. This resolution is tentative because it may not be incorporated into the next version of the standard, it could be changed prior to the next release, or it could be changed as the result of the "public review and comment" period required for the next version of the standard. If you choose to use this tentative resolution, you do so at your own risk since at this time it is not part of the DMIS standard.
