Changing dimension tolerance type

I'm writing this from memory as I'm at home now. We have been transitioning to stand alone Creo. When I create a drawing and add dimensions, I go into the properties, the tolerance type is grayed out and froze at nominal. I can't change the type to symmetric etc... Does that make sense? I seem to recall going through this at some other time. Is it a config option?
 
It's also linked to dual dimensioning with mm in brackets. That no longer gets displayed. I just can't for the life of me remember what controls this. I says in the options that it's still loading our standard drawing.dtl file.
 
Toony,

YOu need to get familiar with your Config.pro
All of the questions you posted here and elsewhere are related to config options.
The dual dimensioning is in the detail options of the drawing.
 
Well that's the strange thing. I am very familiar with my config.pro. Nothing has changes with that respect. Not sure what's going on.
 
Sorted, one line of my batch file text was wrong.
