I have a mystifying issue here that might be related to how Creo 2 handles the display of decimal places in drawing family tables. I have had a number of models where I weanted to change the number of decimal places shown for instance dimensions ina drawing table from 3 to 2 places. I changed the decimal places in each diimension, regenerated the modeland verified the family table. Everything looked good.
I flipped back to the drawing and the number of decimal pl;aces is still 3, but with an additional zero on the end of the number..
After fiddling around with things, I tried the old way of controlling parameter decimal places "[.2]" and it knocked the zeros off.. This makes no sense to me as model dimensions should not be affected by this, only parameters.
Has anyone else noticed this behaviour and if so have they found a way to fix this? I'm using Creo 2.0 M070

I should haveadded that I have noticed this behaviour when editing old models..

I've had issues with runaway decimal display in some tables. The only thing that I found that would work was to open the Properties dialog box for the specific dimension in the model and change the number of decimal display there. Nothing else worked.

Adjusting the decimal place on a driving dimension using the properties box is what I've always done, but this doesn't work in this case.
