Hi Mirza1ghasemi,

~~In a part or assembly sketch, I don't think you can. Can you confirm that you are looking to do this in a part or assembly model?~~

edit: see mdavis22569's reply about typing it in as DMS

@mdavis22569 that is only for drawing dimensions, no?

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

yes..

However ... you can put DMS in the dimension ... it will convert it to degrees

unfortunately the Document settings doesn't give you the option to set it to DMS.

Just Degree and Radian

Nice! I didn't know that could be done, and never thought to try it.
