You can set the unit of dimensioning here.

The dimension text computed by Allplan only appears rounded-off on-screen. For internal calculations, Allplan still uses the original value. To round off dimension text, Allplan uses the value set in [mm] or [inches].

For example:

Round-off value of 5 [mm] 0.1137m 0.115m

Round-off value of 10 [mm] 0.2384m 0.24m

Round-off value of x/4 [inches] 0.12m=4.72" 4 3/4"

Enter the number of decimal places here.

Enter the number of trailing zeroes here. Enter the number of trailing zeroes used to pad out empty decimal places.

Example:

The value 1.01 with:

4 decimal places, 4 trailing zeroes will display as 1.0100

4 decimal places, 2 trailing zeroes will display as 1.01

You can toggle the exponent-style numeric format on/off.

This option is only available when Dim. Text Unit is set to m, cm.

Fraction is only available for the US units ', " and inches.

The decimal places of dimension text are always written as fractions. The denominator of the fraction depends on the setting for Round-off value. Allplan may reduce the fraction.

When you select the Fraction option, Allplan will use the value set as the common denominator for all fractions. In this case, Allplan will not reduce the fraction.

• This option is only available in elevation dimensioning mode.

When you enable this check box, the dimension text is preceded by a plus sign (provided the value is positive).

When you disable this check box, the dimension text is displayed without a plus sign.

With plus sign	Without plus sign

• This option is only available in Elevation dimensioning and Pegging Out mode.

When you enable this check box, zero values are preceded by ±.

Option enabled	Option disabled

You can enter up to 10 characters that are to appear in front of the dimension text.

Example:

You can enter up to 10 characters that are to appear after the dimension text.

Example:

24cm.
