Strong Dimensions altering My Sketch

[ChuckyN]

Hello,

Background: I was uploading a step file into Creo from a supplier and it came in as surfaces so I basically remodeled it by using the surface edges and than deleting sketch references in order to make the new model independent. When I delete the references from the step file on my sketch, all the dimensions come in as weak as you'd expect. I would Ideally like to turn the selecter to "dimensions", select all of the dimensions and make them all strong, just as a good practice to only have strong dimensions in the model's sketches. When I have been doing this, the sketch alters itself as if the dimensions possibly round up and down and the sketch tweaks a little bit making it change from being almost a perfect replica of the surfaces from the step file. Has anybody ever had this problem and does anybody have any suggestions on how to get the strong dimensions to stay exactly the same as the weak dimensions (therefore keeping the sketch exactly the same)?

Thanks!
