How do I remove the tolerance display from the graphics window? Is it a config.pro setting?

'Tools>Options', set TOL_DISPLAY to No. And don't forget to save the config.pro file to where it will load by default.
This also takes the tolerance out of the dimensions. I take it these 2 things are controlled by this one variable?
Is there a way to be able to select tolerances on dimensions but not have the tolerances diplayed on the screen?
Thanks
Mike

Well, this is a can of worms. Yeah, Mike, you're right: when you set TOL_DISPLAY to No, you get rid of the annoying screen label, but ALSO the tolerance value set with any tolerance mode besides nominal will not display. HOWEVER,
Oh, and how about, just for laughs, we throw in the rampant confusion between tolerance and accuracy in Pro/e! Absolute accuracy? Relative accuracy? Maybe in 20 years they'll get the idea it's not such a good thing to name things to be deliberately misleading. BTW, the only reason anyone gives something such an absurd name as 'absolute accuracy' is for obfuscation. Okay, I admit it, I'm a sucker for a conspiracy theory. Though I do recongnize the legitimacy of arguments for gross ignorance and incompetance and the explanatory power of such arguments.
