Dual Dimension Display Question
Dual Dimension Display Question
(OP)
I am in the process of creating a field assembly drawing and the request has been made to use FT/IN dimensions as well as dual dimension in MM. When i change my dimension method to FT/IN it displays the ticks '/" as one would hope. How can i get the dimensions to read FT/IN vs '/" and the dual dimension to read MM. Or is this even possible? Thanks for the help.

Then go to Dimensions/Linear. Check boxes for 'Dual Dimensions' to show "Dual dimensions display" and "Show units for dual display".
For some reason it does not work if the dims show limit dimensions.

If Units is set to Feet & Inches you can get XX'X" or XX'-X"
I don't know of a way to get XXft/Xin
Dual display can be set to either not show units or mm.
Note: The units are shown lower case.
