sketcher decimal places for inch and metric parts

Hi Everyone,

Is there any way to set the sketcher decimal place specific to the part and not the Creo 2 session?

I often work with both metric and inch parts and constantly need to reset the sketcher decimal place to 3 for inch part and 2 for metric part. I have created mapkeys to automate the change, but I wondering if there is a way (config option?) to set each part to the right value and have it locked to the part to eliminate having to use the mapkeys.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
 
Like autocad did/does 20 years ago where you can have a dimension style for each part.
LOL

PTC says no one dimensions prints anymore.
 
I have to use both sets of units depending on the project. By default all our settings are for metric but when I have to use inch I load a config.pro file that changes all the settings for template files, drawing dtl files, etc.
