Hi MaheshSh, that has worked.
I needed to select "Std_English" to allow the inclusion of zeros.
Thanks for both your help guys.
Best regards,

Is this a metric drawing? I believe the standard is to have no trailing zeros on metric dimensions and Creo upholds that standard. I don't know if you can override the behavior, but if so it's got to be a "drawing.dtl" setting.
Try changing drawing option lead_trail_zeros to an appropriate option.

Why are you trying to display trailing zeros on a metric drawing against the standards?
If it is for default tolerance, then explicitly state the tolerance, not circumvent the standard.
When I look at a drawing and see trailing zeros, I automatically assume it is dimensioned in English units.
When I see a leading zero, I assume it is in metric units.
There is a reason for the standard to define which units use leading and trailing zeros!
Hi Ben you are correct.
I was trying to circumvent the standard and incorrectly so.
I've reverted to just putting a tolerance on this dimension rather than using English units.
