In fact, a certain automaker that I do a lot of GD&T work with used to have their own modifier which was a circled V. This could be used after a feature-of-size datum to indicate virtual condition. But it got to be too confusing because the national standard had M as meaning virtual condition. So it's really just semantics... That’s right, John.

Thank you. Even after reading the standard 3 times I did not understand this topic quite as clearly as I do now. Thanks. Great explanation. Thank you.

As a product instructor for CMM's and Vision products it is imperative that we have a good working grasp of these conceps. Jacob Grant I found this to be very informative.
