muck Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Is there a way to convert existing dims form feet-inches to inches only The dim was created in arch style. Example 2'-10 3/16" needs to go to inches only with out feet. Example 24 3/16" without forcing the dim. Thank you, Quote
RFRUSSO Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 type "dimstyle" at the command line to launch the DIMENSION STYLE MANAGER, select your dim style and then click on MODIFY (on the left). Find and select the PRIMARY UNITS tab at the top. in the second box down there should be a drop down box for PRECISION. Click on that and select 0'-0". That will round off all of your dimensions that use that dim style to the nearest inch. If you do note see the dims change right away, go up the menu and select dimensions, then look at the bottom and click on UPDATE DIMENSION Quote

Instead once you are in the Primary Units tab, pick the Unit Format and select Fractional, go down a few to the suffix and type in inch marks ". Quote
