Dual Dimensions in Hole and Thread Notes

I am using Dual Dimensioning for a series of drawing that will be manufactured here in the states as well as in the UK.  I am using the Hole and Thread note tool but It only creates notes with imperial dimension.  All other dimension are displayed with both Imperial and [metric].  Is there a way to have this format in the Hole and thread notes?

Hi @roblime 

 

Short answer is no... but here's why;

 

The hole and thread note is reading the feature information from the model. From your description, the holes are imperial.

 

Imperial holes may have a relatively similar metric equivalent, but you are going to get a more precise component if you specify the imperial hole. Most machine shops, in my experience, are equipped to make imperial sized holes.
