Good morning,
I've been trying for days now to look for an answer or previous post for my problem but I'm having no luck.
My issues is I need to set the Dimension Format to "Dual Dimension 0.02" instead of "By Standard" for Inventor 2013. Is this something thst cannot be done? I have tried everything I know and I dont understand why this could be so complicated. Any tips would be greatly appriciated.

Regards,

AA

Hi,

what's "0.02" ?

Annotate/Format/Edit layers/Dimension/New(or existing)/alternate units

Not sure if that's an answer to your question or something you already have tried.

Hi Mekanikles,

The 0.02 si part of the dimension name "Dual Dimension 0.02" I have managed to change the setting on the Standard but everytime i restart Inventor it loses all of the changes I've made. I have tried creating a new standard, a new object default, nothing seems to stick.

I have attached a snip for more clarification.
