0 Feet: Suppresses the feet portion of a feet-and-inches dimension when the
distance is less than one foot. For example, 0'-6 1/2" becomes 6 1/2".
0 Inches: Suppresses the inches portion of a feet-and-inches dimension when
the distance is an integral number of feet. For example, 1'-0" becomes 1'.
Angular Dimensions
Displays and sets the current angle format for angular dimensions.
Units Format
Sets the angular units format. (DIMAUNIT system variable)
Precision
Sets the number of decimal places for angular dimensions. DIMADEC system
variable)
Zero Suppression
Controls the suppression of leading and trailing zeros. (DIMAZIN system
variable)
Leading
Suppresses leading zeros in angular decimal dimensions. For example, 0.5000
becomes .5000.
You can also display dimension distances less than one unit in sub units.
Sub-units factor Sets the number of sub units to a unit. It is used to calculate
the dimension distance in a sub unit when the distance is less than one unit.
For example, enter 100 if the suffix is m and the sub-unit suffix is to display
in cm.
Sub-unit suffix Includes a suffix to the dimension text sub unit. You can
enter text or use control codes to display special symbols. For example, enter
cm to for .96m to display as 96cm.
Trailing
Suppresses trailing zeros in angular decimal dimensions. For example, 12.5000
becomes 12.5, and 30.0000 becomes 30.
0 Feet
Suppresses the feet portion of a feet-and-inches dimension when the distance
is less than 1 foot. For example, 0'-6 1/2" becomes 6 1/2".
