Deleting Trailing Zeros in Dims

[Poseidon]

I have been using Pro/E for about 12years, so I'm not exactly a newbie.
That being said, I need some help. I usually work in English units, but one
of my customers wants his drawings dual dimensioned with mm as primary. I
constructed the models in mm. The problem is that when I show the dimensions
in the drawing, all of the trailing zeros are deleted (in the metric
dimensions only). I go into the properties for those dimensions and ask it
to show two decimal places, and it has no effect (I have tried it as a
global change also w/ no effect). I have spent hours looking thru the
Drawing Setup & the Config.pro looking for some option that I might have set
wrong, but have yet to find anything. I have been working in 2001 version,
but have tried pulling it into Wildfire 2 with the same results.

Does any one know what I am doing wrong. I'm pulling my hair out, and my
customer is leaning on me hard to get these drawings finished. Thanks in
advance...

Poseidon,


Set the following DTL options


dual_digits_diff 1
dual_dimensioning yes
dual_dimension_brackets yes
dual_secondary_units inch
lead_trail_zeros both
lead_trail_zeros_scope dims


dual_digits_diff 1 If you have your system set to show the primary dim as2 dec places, your secondary dim will show with 3 dec places


dual_digits_diff -1 If you have your system set to show the primary dim as2 dec places, your secondary dim will show with 1 dec place and so on.


Hope this helps,


Regards,
Max Weston.
