I've set up a model template and configured the PAX file, all works pretty good.

Now, I'm sure there's a setting to control this ...

The model template has dual dimensions toggled off.

However, when I create a new file, and go into Sketcher, the dimensions are showing as dual (auto dimensions).

How do I stop the model template using dual dimensions ?

Those settings are based on the Drafting standard set for the Part file, even if you never intend to create an actual Drawing. So you need to verify which standard is being used by this file.

My drafting standard uses dual dimensioning.

I don't mind that, as they look great as "auto dimensions". Not sure why they still show as dual when converted to driving, seeing as the primary and secondary display the same value.
