Benefits and Description
Specify a value for dim_trail_zero_max_places that is less than the specified number of decimal places to control the number of trailing zeros for dimensions and tolerances. This option:
- Does not affect decimal places if the value specified for the lead_trail_zeros prevents the display of trailing zeros.
- Affects the display of all dimensions in a drawing. You cannot individually control the number of decimal places for dimensions with trailing zeros.
- Does not affect angular dimensions displayed in the degree, minute, and second format.
For example, if dim_trail_zero_max_places is set to 2 and the default decimal places is set to 3:
- A value of 0.5 appears as 0.50
- A value of 0.3278 appears as 0.328
