Drawing template (not automated)?

I followed few threads to set up my drawing template.  My drawing template will have all the setting I wanted.  Dual dimension with 3 decimal places.  When open to use this drawing template, Smart dimension gives 3 decimal places but no dual dim unless I click on Dual dimension check box.  Is this behavior normal?  Is there a way to automate this so that Smart dimension gives me dual dim at one click.
