65 to 65.000

[leow_john]

Hi all

I want to change dim 65 to 65.000
Because in our company we follow the tolerance according to number of digits?

Thanks for the reply.

Your answer is one I expected, but it is not really I was looking for..

Say if the nominal dim was 100.1468
Then I put decimal places 3 , PRO-E change the dim into 100.147

If I put decimal places to 2 PRO-E will change 100.15

....ok fine

But say if the nominal is 100.00 ( in the part)

why pro-e not changing in the drawing.?

(pro-e shows the dim 100).

In our company just writing means plus/minus 0.1

look up the settings for the drawing.dtl option

lead_trail_zeros

Are you dimensioning in metric units?


Does your drawing format say that your drawings conform to ASME Y14.5m?


Metric dimensions do NOT use trailing zeros as decimal place holders for default tolerances.

Set this option in Config.pro:
default_dec_places 3


This way all dimensions would be always on 3 decimal places


And in drawing options (metric.dtl), as Dell Boy said set option:
lead_trail_zeros std_default (I think this is default to show zeros)
