Cannot Change Architectural Units to Inches in Drawing for Single Dimension

In drawing mode, if I set the Document Settings to Architectural. And then attempt to change one of the dimensions (override) to Inches, I cannot do that. See video.

Are you trying to make it read 60"?

 

Since it is just one dimension, can you should be able to double click < 5'8" >   maintaining the brackets and change to <60">

 

At the beginning of the video, you showed the Architectural Units set to FT- If you change that to inches what happens?   does the entire doc turn to inches?

Hi @tedbradley314 

 

Have a look at the formatting of the units. If you change the units to inches, and then set the format to either fractional or decimal, you will get the result that you expect.
