G'day,
I have just moved jobs and on my new PC (a brand new build), strange things are afoot. When I dimension anything in a sketch, the dimension is if the format like this...3.65e+002, rather than 365mm. My machine is the only one like this and I have no idea how to change it.

Can anyone help?

WOW!!! Was that it? I don't understand why, but I'm happy that it's now as it should be. Thanks dude.
 
hey Poorpaulus, these value are for exponential notation....
like if the value is more than 6 digit after decimal... than CATIA will show the dimension in exponential form,

above two values are for left and right place of decimal
