RE: oblong box

Dim teh Feature, in the Dimension dialog box, set your Tolerance/Precision drop-down menu to Basic.  That should give yo uwhat you are looking for.

RE: oblong box

Doh!  Oblong... meaning rounded corners.

Dimension dialog box, click on More Properties at the bottom, then check Display as Inspection Dimension.
