Dual Dimension Display

Does anyone know if the dual dimension display can be adjusted so that both displays are in the same units through API? I can't find a reference for this so I don't think it's possible.

Seems like a strange request, but we have an engineer here who would like to see 6 to 8 place precision while designing and also the same value rounded to the precision which will be used for the drawing on the screen at the same time. (Don't ask me why.)


Thanks in advance.....

There is no reason why he can't set the model dimensions to display 6 figures while the drawing template is restricted to 3 (or whatever).
Anyone else using the model files will see his 6 figures or have to reset to "precision".
