Failed Cross Section - Instance

[dgschaefer]

Creo 2, M040

I've created a family table part of a casting.  I've got the generic, which is the same geometry as the final part, an 'as cast' instance and a 'as machined' instance.  I have a cross section through a plane created through two tapped holes that I'd like to have in the generic and 'as machined' instance.  The tapped holes are patterned via sketched points.  I added the sketch to the family table, excluded it in the 'as cast' instance, and this removed the holes and the cross section plane, as I would have expected.

However, Creo will not verify the instance because the cross section fails.  It won't let me add the cross section from the model tree to the family table.  How do I get this instance to verify and still keep the section in the generic?

Sounds like the same issues I experienced with a Sheetmetal Family Table Part.

I called it into Tech Support and they stated was resolved in M050.
I installed M050 yesterday and verified it is fixed.

You should test that build to see if your issue is the same and resolved.

Well, I did something, not sure what, and the problem went away.  If it crops back up, I'll look at M050.

Maybe this is a Friday questions, but let's start early.

For those of you designing plastic parts, what do you use for tolerances and why? In the past I have references DIN 16901. I have been briefly researching, but have not found anything comparably documented.

Thanks,
