Stacked and skewed fractional dimensions

In a document using the ANSI (inch) template, you now can display fractional dimensions in stacked format and in skewed format. Previously, only the linear format was available.

The new formats make it easier to read a nominal value and fraction than when written in linear form. For example, 1 1/16 can be misread as 11/16.

The following fraction formatting options are available on the Units tab Dimension Properties dialog box and on the Secondary Units tab, under Fractional Display Style:

• Stacked

• Skewed

• Linear

• Fraction Size

For more information, see Format a fractional dimension.
