When measuring, units show accuracy to 128's of an inch, only need to the nearest 32 of an inch

Hey there all, I have this problem when using the inspect or measure function in the design function of fusion. The units go to the nearest 128th of an inch and that is just unnecessary and then requires me to do lots of metal math to get a number that is going to translate well to a tape measure. Is there a setting or something I am missing to correct this issue. Any info is appreciated

The Measure command will always report the true length.  What you need to do is configure your sketching tools so you only sketch up to a maximum of a 32nd of an inch.  I assume you are using Fractional Units, set up in your Preferences.  The video will show how to configure your sketch so you will get entries to a standard 32nd of an inch.  If you need a finer accuracy use the sketch dimension tool to enter it.
