Hi,
Im trying to change the settings for dual dimensions but im not getting all the options.
Ex: When i select a dimension.Right click on settings.Go to Text->Units it is just showing check boxes for "Show Leading Zeros" & "Show Trailing Zeros" instead of all other options like "Units,Decimal Places, Fraction Denominator ....". Do i need to make any preference change to view all the options.

Thanks

This is what I'm getting...

...and I can't find any options that shows less. Does this behave like this with all dimensions or only some? Have you tested this on more than one Drawing? Does this only occur on one workstation or user login?

Hi,
Im not able to get the settings for all the drawings.But when i try to login to NX with my colleagues login i get all the settings as shown by you. What change should i make to get these settings.
Thanks for your help
 
Login using your login, open any part file and go to...

File -> All Preferences -> User Interface -> General

...and select the 'Reset Dialog Memory' button near the bottom of the dialog and see if that helps.
