The first of these new additions allows users to add Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) symbols in CTS. As shown below, a popup window provides the various GD&T symbols that can be entered into Product Characteristics and Process Characteristics fields, as well as other areas of the control plan and FMEA. Of the 21 available GD&T symbols, users can view seven at a time, and can access the remaining symbols by clicking the left or right arrows in the popup window.
The second update to the software makes it possible for CTS Task Gantt charts to be exported as PDFs. After clicking the print icon, select the PDF icon on the left to generate a copy of the Gantt chart (shown below). The resulting PDF file can then be attached to a meeting record in CTS or printed and posted in a common area for your team’s review.
