drafting dimension style = 7'-5 1/2"

(OP)
Guys!

In drafting (v5r11).

Any of you has succeeded to create a new dimension style so that a dimension can be read as feet ' - inches fractional " (7'-5 1/2" stands for 89.5in). The doc is not that clear on this.

Thanks

Kevin

RE: drafting dimension style = 7'-5 1/2"

Kevin,

  Is it differant than v5r7 in that you change the standard in the "dimention properties" window to "FEET-INC" ?

Even this still creates the dimension as 7' 5.50".  And the only way I've been able to get 7' 5 1/2" is to select the dimentions individually and change the properties under "Value/Format" to fractional.
