coordinate tracker only displaying 2 decimal places

[Anonymous]

All,

I have a map which is using the DLTM coordinate system, so I'm using the coordinate tracker to display the Lat and Longs in decimal degrees, but it's only showing them to 2 decimal places, which is as good as useless. Displaying them in Degrees, Minutes and seconds works fine, but I really need them as decimals, they used to work fine, so I'm not sure what's changed.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm using Map 3d 2007

Set the precision for your units to more than two places.
From the Classic Map workspace Format > Units
From the Geospatial Workspace Setup > More Formatting Options > Units

The world is not FLAT so why is your GIS data?

It's sorted, I had to go to "setup", "more formatting options", "units", under Length, I selected Decimal, and then changed the precision to 0.000000.

I just had the same issue, went out to the Drawing Utility tab (upper most left hand corner) AutoCAD Map 2013; then to Units and set the decimal accurracy-precison out to five ex. 0.0000

Works great now can track coordinates in degs min sec and decimal at the same time.

Thank-you
