Otherwise it will not show the fractions properly. Then, under More the “ Round to Nearest Fraction” must be checked. The fractions could be adjusted to any fraction value is preferred, i.e. The following image demonstrate how we can set the dimensions to show with fractions. Fractions for Imperial dimensionsĪlthough the imperial dimensions could be shown with decimal places same as metric dimensions, some users prefer to show dimensions with fractions or even round off the numbers to the nearest fractions. However for SOLIDWORKS Imperial Dimensions, the setting will be different.

For the metric units, the number of decimal places could be pre-selected and whether leading zeros should be shown. With respect to dimension units, the companies make multiple templates so that the users select what units they want to create their drawing with. In the drawing templates, the unit system is preset along with many other settings to eliminate the setup steps for engineers and drafters.

The drawings in SOLIDWORKS are usually made using drawing templates which are specifically designed for each company.
