NX2312 Sketcher and Drafting - Approximate Dimension Symbol

I am currently using NX2312. In both sketcher and drafting (though this is the most important in the drafting application I suppose), when dimensioning two objects that have decimal places beyond the dimension limit, the approximate (double tilde) symbol automatically appears before the dimension. Is there a way to remove this symbol? In my case, I am dimensioning objects with very abnormal positioning, so it is not desirable to increase the number of decimal places to try to eliminate this symbol, and in this case the number of decimal places could be increased to 6 and the approximate symbol would not disappear.

Example image shown below:

If there is a way to disable this behavior in the customer defaults I would be interested in those settings as well. Thanks!
