Changing the number of decimal places for Hole Callout C'sink angles in drawings

With SW 2018, suddenly my hole angles are being called out to 3 decimal places: 82.000deg, 100.000deg, etc.

Does anyone know how to change the number of decimal places for the c'sink angle?

Thanks Glenn.  Everything is good in the document properties.

 

The dimension callout seems to be doing some odd things.

I seem to have to tweak it here within the dimension callout (which I frankly haven't touched in years / have forgotten that this existed...).

I change the CounterSink Angle to zero decimal places.  That then screws up the thru hole and c'sink dia dimension decimal places.  I then go back and change them back - when I do it all in a particular order, everything comes out as I'd like...

X.XXX Hole Dia
X.XXX C'sink Dia
X C'sink Angle

So

- everything was there all along to change (I'd forgotten how to access it)

- Some default setting changed somewhere to X.XXX for c'sink angles.

- I'm able to change them, changing them is buggy, but I can get what I want when fiddling enough...
