Dimension style list
- Annotative: This dimension style should generally be used for all dimensions in structures plans. It uses an architectural unit format with a precision of 1/8"
- Decimal: This dimension should be used for sketches only, not final plans. This style uses a decimal unit format with a precision of 0.001'
- Standard: This is a non-annotative copy of the Annotative dimension style.
Info: The dimension styles in the two Structures drawing templates differ by a sale factor of 12 to account for the different base units in the two templates.
