{0:@D} added to annotation

When dimensioning a threaded hole Creo is adding {0:@D} to the front of the dimension. I have tried to delete this several times without results, creating a new dimension for the same hole does not help the problem

Does anyone know why this is appearing and how to stop it from automatically adding

You will have to change the @D to an @O (the letter O, as in Override) to suppress the display of the dimension value.

Note that only works for annotation dimension.  Driving dimensions cannot be "overriden".

"{0:***}" typically signifies that the enclosed text has a different format that the default for the note.

 

What version of Creo are you using?  Can you add a screen shot of the dimension and dimension text?

If you add a space between the right bracket } and the 4X, I think the .201 will go away.

After trying a few things in Creo 7, I think the issue is no space after the dimension.

 

The @D refers to the dimension.  When you don't leave a space you are trying to append a character to the end of the @D.  To maintain the dimension, Creo is adding the brackets to separate the @D from the added text.

 

If you copy all of the added text, deleted it and select off the dimension, you can go back in, add a space and paste the text back.  If you don't want a space, you are stuck with the formatting brackets.
