    Dimensioning in inches vs. feet

    I am doing drawings for a kitchen and bath designer.  They prefer to have their dimensions in inches rather than feet and inches.  Is there a way (other than editing each and every dimension) to have ACAD LT 2011 do it automatically?  Thanks.

    You can set up a style using fractional or decimal according to your needs.  The caveat here is that the raw style will not do inch marks if you need them. The dim will read just 14 .The setting (work around) for that is to have a quote mark in the dimension suffix. Then it will make the dim read 14".

     

    Set up that style and see if it will work for you.
