Units tab (Hole Table Properties dialog box)


Use the Units tab in the Hole Table Properties dialog box to set the primary units for displaying numeric hole information in a hole table on a drawing. The property values on the Units tab are stored with saved settings.

Note:

Units settings do not pertain to the hole table columns for hole number (or hole ID), origin (or group number), hole count, and hole type.

Primary Units

Linear

The Linear formatting options are applicable to linear distance, size, and XY location in a hole table.

Units

Specifies the unit setting for a linear value.

Round-off

Sets the round-off for a linear value.

Note:

This option sets the round-off for all columns in the hole table. However, if you want to use a different round-off for a specific column in the hole table, you can do this using the Format Values dialog box to add property text formatting, /@n. To learn how, see Format property text values.

You also can open the Format Values dialog box to set the round-off, units, and tolerance formatting for one or more selected data cells by selecting the Format button on the Data tab of the Hole Table Properties dialog box, or by selecting the Format Values command on the context menu in direct edit mode, as shown here:

Angular

The Angular formatting options are applicable to angular distance.

Specifies the unit setting for an angular value.

Round-off

Sets the round-off for an angular value.

Delimiter

Specifies the decimal delimiter for the primary units.

. Period

Sets a period as the decimal delimiter.

, Comma

Sets a comma as the decimal delimiter.

Zeros

Specifies whether a zero is on the left or right of the decimal.

Leading

Places a zero to the left of the decimal point if there are no numbers to the left.

Trailing

Places zeros to the right of the decimal point. The number of zeros placed is based on the active setting for Round-off. For example, if the value is .5, and the round-off setting is .1234, the resulting value appears as .5000.
