RE: How to set Dimension Size, Decimal Place, etc.
Preferences -> Annotation...
...and select the various tabs labeled 'Dimensions', 'Line/Arrows', 'Lettering', and any of the other tabs which might be relevant and with each one set your desired defaults and then finally hit OK and save your template file.
Now if you're not using predefine templates, but rather starting from scratch each time, then you will need to make the same basic settings by going to...
File -> Utilities -> Customer Defaults -> Drafting
...and making them there.

I needed changes to sketcher text size but you pointed me in the right direction. Again, thanks much
