Welcome to the forum, senthil.

You probably cannot do this with any default settings. All dimensions are treated equally.

However, if you don't need to create the GD&T blocks within the model as GTOLs, you can always create them manually with a note. There are only a few options that are more challenging than most.

I am curious to understand why you wouldn't want the tolerance value to be dual dimensioned?

Thanks for your quick reply. I exactly did as what you told.

Machine operators confuse with the primary units(they are familiar with secondary units), thought to introduce secondary units.

For GD&T, I thought it won't be confuse as such and like to turn off dual dimension. That's the reason
