Drawing setup is now at File > Prepare > Drawing Properties > Detail Options

    As I started to answer this I realized you asked about Creo Parametric, but I'm going to leave my answer in case it works for you. I'm operating Creo Elements/Pro 5.0.

    The option is "dual_dimensiong" set to yes and is found under the category "These options control dimensions". Do as Stacy Springer says above to find the menu.
