• Key Concepts: 
  Chord height tolerance is a feature of SAP Visual Enterprise (CA-VE) that allows users to adjust the height of a 3D object in order to better match the object's real-world dimensions. This feature is especially useful when creating 3D models of objects that have complex shapes or sizes.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the chord height tolerance feature, users must first select the 3D object they wish to adjust. Then, they can use the “Chord Height Tolerance” slider to adjust the height of the object. The slider can be adjusted from 0 to 1, with 0 being the lowest and 1 being the highest. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When adjusting the chord height tolerance, it is important to remember that the higher the value, the more accurate the 3D model will be. However, it is also important to remember that increasing the value too much can lead to a decrease in performance. Therefore, it is best to find a balance between accuracy and performance when adjusting this setting.
