Catia drafting default to fraction

Catia drafting default to fraction

Catia drafting default to fraction

(OP)
We currently have managed to set up 2 and 3 place decimal drafting standards in Catia and can select whichever at the drafting page setup.  We would now like to have a page setup to include fractions.  Any help would be appreciated.

RE: Catia drafting default to fraction

This should be under the Dimension Styles in the Drafting Standards file. It's under the Precision Mode - you have a choice of Decimal or Fractional.

CJ,  I found the fractional setting this morning.  It works very well, but with one exception.  Whole numbers display as 6 0/64.  Do you have any suggestion as to how we can work around this?

RE: Catia drafting default to fraction

Change the precision for that dimension to be 0.
