hole callout dimension value

(OP)
I have the following hole in a plate.

Ø.375 3/4"DP

SolidWorks will only let me have decimal place or fractional dimensions not both.

How do I get it displayed like I shown above dia at .375 depth at 3/4"

RE: hole callout dimension value

If you used the Hole Wizard to place the hole, you can click on the dimension in the drawing and change the Callout Value to Depth and then go to the Other Tab and check Override Units, change to fractions and make your denominator 4.
