Hole table Size column

[tmalinski]

In the Hole table size column the diameters and depth precision is based on the primary units precision for the drawing. I know I can modify the decimals, but My problem is my precision is set to 4 places correctly for most features, but I often need to change only specific featues to a fraction or I get slammed by the tooling guys on the shop floor. Is there a way to selectively choose fractions as an overide on a per dimension basis? I need this for regular Dimensions, Hole Tables, and any other associative dimensional features.

thanks,
Tom...

I think this is the path:
Tools
Options
Document Properties
Units

This sets the global units fractions or decimals, but I'm not able to combine fractions and decimals in one document. Or if I can, I don't know how...

Tmalinski,

To change an individual dimension to a fraction:

Right click on the dimension
Select "Properties..."
Under the units box, uncheck "Use document's units"
Click "Units..."
Check the "Fractions" radio button

Sorry,

Forgot this was a hole table and not a regular dim.

That doesn't appear to work with hole tables.
