    Default Help With Contour Labeling Elevation Precision

    We are using the contour labeling tool to label contours on our new grading surface.
    The tool is nice but the contour label precision is xxx.xx and we label contours xxx.

    I cannot find in the Prospector>Surface>Label Styles>Contour>Proposed Major Labels & Proposed Minor Labels, etc to change the elevation label to even foot.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks
    as

    Edited Contour Style
    Prospector>Surface>Lable Styles>Contour>Proposed Major Labels, etc
    Layout Tab>Text>Contents>Select ...>Precision>1
    However, it is very hard to get these to change from .01 to 1. You have to hilight the text in the preview panel and then change precision....
