How do I make driven dimensions come in as fractions?
How do I make driven dimensions come in as fractions?
So you want driving dimensions to display as decimal and driven dimensions as fractions? You can click on the driven dimension (or Ctrl select multiple dimensions) to highlight it, click on the Other tab in the CommandManager, click in the box for "Override Units", and choose "Decimal", but I don't believe there is any way to do it automatically, short of a macro.
I want them all to come in as fractions.
Like David said, that's controlled at Tools > Options > Document Properties > Units. From your question I thought you wanted different displays for driven and driving dimensions.
Can't you round to the nearest fraction in the "Units" settings?
Here is what I have for units
Driven dims still come in as decimals
Click in the box in the Length row and the More column (upper right). Do you have the box checked for "Round to nearest fraction"?
Thanks... I am tired of trying to convert in my head
That's why I have this hanging in my cube...
I do too..... well now I do
I'm glad you got it to work. I'm sorry it took so long to figure out what was wrong.
