    Default Setting default dimension styles

    I'm in the process of making a custom drawing format. In the custom format I've set new drawing standards. The problem I'm having is when I select the General Dimension command, or any dimension command, I get By Standard for my dimension style, which I do not want, I want Imperial .00.

    How can I change the default from By Standard to Imperial .00? (see zip files)

    Thanks

    Did you create a style with the dimension style you want and save it as part of your drawing template? If you do this then when you create a drawing from the template it will bring in the dimension style you want.

    You may also have to make sure that you go into the Format>Styles & Standards editor and set the default dimension styles in the Object Defaults section.
