Hole annotation in drawing with different unit than part doesn't update well.

[Anonymous]

I am using Inventor 2017 and had updated it as new as I could get, but still don't know whether it is a bug.

If I create a part with a hole in inch and switch the unit of Hole annotation between inch and mm in the drawing, It seems the value of mm doesn't display correctly.

Attachment is my example. I created a 1" square with a 0.25" hole and switched the format between "Default in [mm] (ANSI)" and "Default mm [in] (ANSI)" in the drawing. The dimension of distance showed well, but the Hole Feature Notes didn't give me a correct value under "Default mm [in] (ANSI)".

Hi! The behavior is a bit confusing but it is not a bug. Go to Manage -> Style and Standard Editor -> select the dimension style of interest -> Notes and Leaders tab -> uncheck "Part Units" -> Save and Close. Then the dual unit in the hole note will be correct.

Many thanks!
