Model dimensions rounding to nearest fraction

[CS_7281178]

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 8.0 (connected) 8.0 8.0.0.0

When I am modeling a part it is rounding my dimensions to the nearest fraction. So when I type in 0.1943 it rounds it to 3/16. I looked in the configuration editor but nothing stood out.

Thanks

Does it actually display 3/16 or 0.1875?

It displays it as 3/16

Sounds like your dimension format is set to fractional.  Is this happening for all dimensions, even newly created ones, or just to existing dimensions?

The easiest fix would be if you find that the option create_fraction_dim is set to yes. You'd have to figure out how it got set that way, but at least you'd know.

Other than that, I don't have any idea.

Check it with File -> Options -> Configuration Editor

(I'm on Creo 4.0, so hopefully this is the same setting and means of changing it for you)

It looks like changing the create_fraction_dim value fixed the problem.

Thanks for the help.
