Inquiry tool output config?

I'm using the Inquiry Tool to do 'stations and offsets' based on alignments that are in my drawing, however I would like to alter the format the tool displays after selecting a point.  Currently it gives me a station with 2 decimal places and the foot symbal (XX+XX.XX') and the offset with 4 decimal places and the foot symbal (XX.XXXX') with negetive in the from for stations to the left of my street.  Is there a way to change the output format?

Station formatting is controlled by the Station settings in Drawing Settings, Ambient Settings tab. Offset is controlled by Distance.

Awesome!  That was extremely helpful!!

 

I do have one more question regarding formatting.  Is there a way to change the prefix and suffix also?

 

Example:

-XX.XX' to L XX.XX

XX.XX' to R XX.XX

Within the context of Inquiry Tool, no. When you are labeling offset values, yes.
