Dimension Rounding in Creo 2

I'm coming from Wildfire 4, so I guess I may have zoned out on previous discussions about this issue.

I've played around a bit in Creo 2, I'm not sure I would call what I'm seeing an enhancement. We work on some highly accurate parts, it not uncommon to use 4 digits in inches and 3 digits in millimeters.

I entered 3.9375 in the sketcher. The sketcher shows 3.938. Finish the feature and measure, it shows 3.9375. Double click on the feature to show the dimension and it shows 3.938. double click on the number to edit it and it shows 3.9375. The drawing shows 3.938. Edit properties on the dimension and it shows this.

This is different behavior than in Wildfire 4.

What config options control this behavior?

* What settings make it like I see out of the box in Creo 2

* What settings restore it to traditional ProE behavior?

Why would I want the new behavior?

That depends on whether you view it on the forum or on the mailing list
😉
In an email it is essential to see the history of the email, otherwise
you have no clue what people are talking about.


Maybe PTC/User can change the forum functionality so that previous
answers are automatically stripped in the forum, but kept intact on the
mailing lists?

I really hope that PTCuser does this filtering on the website sidebecause It was extremely difficult going through this form.PTCUser could have the quoted text be optional where the user would have to click to display what was being quoted.


I also really liked the content of this form (once I was able to sort through the quoted mess)
