Changing Precision from 3 Places to 2 Places

Wed 12/29/1999 Tip #4

Do you have multiple dimensions to change from a 3 place decimal, to a 2 place decimal at one time?  You don’t need to do them separately.  “Ctrl select” all or some of the dims you need to change from 3 places to 2 places.  Right click on the last one selected and choose properties.  You do not have to uncheck the “use documents precision” box and then click the Precision… button and change the value and tolerance to 2 places.  With multiple dims selected all that is need to do is, select the dims needed to be changed, right click properties and uncheck the “use document precision” and click OK.  When this is done with more than one dim selected to change the dims default to 2 places even though you have not changed a number in the Precision dialog box.
