Help with dimension display

Mitch Nesbitt · Post by **Mitch Nesbitt** » Sat, Sep 15 2007, 2:09AM

Whenever I do a line drawing and want the dimensions for a cut list it always shows up to 1/32. Is there anyway of changine this to 1/16\"? I've tried hunting everywhere and can't seem to find out how to make the change. I will like to see everything to 1/16\"
Please help. It would be much apprciated.
thank you all. :?

Morning Mitch
Did you try Setting/Preferences

Mitch,
I don't think there is any way to make the software round to the nearest 1/16th inch. If you want to show only sixteenths then you have to draw to the nearest sixteenth and not 32ths.

Kerry,

You are right. There is no rounding with imperial measurements.

Maybe this wouldn't be a bad suggestion for the programmers.

I would like to see a (user specified) snap feature with the cabinet resizing. Say for example you insert a 24\" base and now for some reason want it to be 48. Well the user specified a 2\" snap increment for resizing. the user could double click on the cabinet and grab the side of the cabinet with the left mouse button, and stretch it into the 48\" cabinet.

It could work the same way in elevation view.

Just a thought.
