Dimension Included Zeros Suddenly Stopped Working???

Anonymous

Noticed today that my dimension style stopped including zeros in the displayed value. Please look at the attached examples below. The lower 1'-0 15/16" was created last week with the same dimension style (Feet & Inches ANSI). The upper 1'-15/16" was created today using the same dimension style (Feet & Inches ANSI). There are no local overrides contained in the file and the style (Feet & Inches ANSI) still has trailing zeros checked as well as Included Zeros is checked. I'm beating my head off the desk trying to figure out what's going on. Is anyone else experiencing this same phenomena?

 

Currently running Windows 10 Version 2004 (KB4023057)

Did any of your settings to display zeros get changed somehow under your styles and standards editor?

No, nothing has changed. The style is exactly the same as it was last week and there are no local style overrides in the drawing file. Please see attachments below.

So I am not sure why it isn't showing proper for you. When I change units from in to ft it shows a number where you want one. 

https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/inventor-products/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2015...

 

Based off the included article "Included Zeros

Select the check box to display a zero before fractional inch values less than one. For example, 1’ - 0 1/2”." 

Which you have checked.

Here is another forum post that may give an idea of how to fix it.. 

 

I would suggest trying to change your units from ft to in saving, seeing if that does anything, and changing it back to see if it updates anything different.

You are on 2021.2. This is a behavioral change in 2021.2. If the new behavior is not acceptable, please uninstall 2021.2 update for now. We are working on a fix to correct it.

I can confirm. I completely uninstalled Inventor 2021.2 and reinstalled Inventor 2021 and the included zero is now displayed in the value. So the dimension style is now back to behaving as expected.

Hi! This is indeed a regression introduced in 2021.2 update unfortunately. You may want to uninstall 2021.2 update for now. The fix will be available on 2021.3 update.

Many thanks!

Thanks, I'll bear with it until 2021.3. Any idea when that will be?
