    Abstract: A computer-based method is disclosed for creating and/or editing a feature control frame (FCF) for geometric dimensioning & tolerancing (GD&T) of a model in a computer-aided design (CAD) program. The method includes displaying, in a graphics area of the CAD program, a cell of a FCF for a geometric feature of the model, displaying a context menu adjacent to the cell of the FCF, wherein the context menu comprises a first plurality of user-selectable input options associated with GD&T information for the geometric feature, receiving a user selection of one of the first plurality of user-selectable input options, and subsequently presenting a second plurality of user-selectable input options associated with GD&T information for the geometric feature. The options included in the second plurality of user-selectable input options depend, at least in part, on which of the first plurality of user-selectable input options the user selected.
