How to change default model dimension size

How to change default model dimension size

How to change default model dimension size

(OP)
Hello -

Is there a way to globally set the size that model dimensions are rendered at?  I don't like the large font used in sketches and when I select a feature to edit.  On a busy sketch the dimensions all run into each other.

Thanks in advance...

RE: How to change default model dimension size

Tools->Options, Document PRoperties tab, Dimensions category.  Once you know what you want, start a brand new part, make your changes, and save as a part template.

There's also a box somewhere for "always display dimensions same size" or something like that.  It's a good setting for parts.
