Templates settings question
Templates settings question
(OP)
Before I started working at my current job, it was a free for all for how 50+ people created drawings. Everyone kind of used the same templates (A size, B size, etc) but pulling up old drawings, all the setvars are different from drawing to drawing for whatever reason.
I created a standard set that we will use but because of the legacy data, we still do ECN's to old drawings. What I have told them to do is start a new drawings, insert the proper size template and then drag over the part from the old template to the new one.
My question is;
The new template has a .1 set for tolerances since that reflects the ISO tolerancing. On some drawings, we use 2 and 3 decimal places. When I drag over the part with dimensions, it changes 82.55 plus/minus 0.15 to 82.6 plus/minus0.2. How can I retain my originalnumber of places? On the drawing, I have 1,2 and 3 decimal places shown.
We cannot insert our new template into an old drawing because none of the setvars will transfer over.
Thanks in advance

dimension style: "STANDARD"
dimension style overrides:
DIMGAP 1.000
DIMLIM Off
DIMRND 0.000
DIMTFAC 0.650
DIMTM 0.150
DIMTOL On
DIMTP 0.150
If I did not explain it well enough, IN the old drawing, I have two dimensions right next to each other. One has been changed to 82.55 plus/minus .015. The next dimesion is 64.2 plus/minus 0.3. Every dimension on the drawing is not 2 places. I am trying to figure out why the setting don't carry over as far as one dimension being 1 decimal place and the other having 2 decimal places
