An enumeration of the builtin dimension formats

Syntax

public enum DimensionFormat

Fields

Name	Description
DIA	Specifies the dimension format for diameters. Appropriate for distances like bolt diameter and hole diameter. These dimensions are allowed to ignore the fabricator setup primary dimension units lock.
DIM	Specifies that the format is the same as the dimension format defined in setup
FT_IN_FRAC	feet-inch fraction, e.g. 13.5 inches would be "1-1 1/2"
FT_IN_FRAC_MM	Specifices the dimension should use FT_IN_FRAC for distances that line up with an inch and MM for distances that line up with a millimeter if the fabricator setup allows non primary units. If a distance lines up with both, e.g. 10", then the dimension will will take the same format as the primary units of the job.
FT_IN_FRAC_MM_GA	Specifices the dimension should use FT_IN_FRAC for distances that line up with an inch and MM for distances that line up with a millimeter and GA for gages if the fabricator setup allows non primary units. If a distance lines up with both, e.g. 10", then the dimension will will take the same format as the primary units of the job. This behaves similar to DIA when the primary units are FT_IN_FRAC and primary units are unlocked.
GA	Specifies the dimension should use the fabricator setup value for primary dimension style and dimension units lock, but if the distance is a gage then the resulting dimension will use the "GA" suffix. This is typically used for plate thickness.
IN_DECIMAL	inch-sixteens, e.g. 13.5 inches would be "13.5"
IN_DECIMAL_MM	Specifices the dimension should use IN_DECIMAL for distances that line up with an inch and MM for distances that line up with a millimeter if the fabricator setup allows non primary units. If a distance lines up with both, e.g. 10", then the dimension will will take the same format as the primary units of the job.
IN_DECIMAL_MM_GA	Specifices the dimension should use IN_DECIMAL for distances that line up with an inch and MM for distances that line up with a millimeter and GA for gages if the fabricator setup allows non primary units. If a distance lines up with both, e.g. 10", then the dimension will will take the same format as the primary units of the job. This behaves similar to DIA when the primary units are IN_DECIMAL and primary units are unlocked.
IN_FRAC	inch fraction, e.g. 13.5 inches would be "13 1/2"
IN_FRAC_MM	Specifices the dimension should use IN_FRAC for distances that line up with an inch and MM for distances that line up with a millimeter if the fabricator setup allows non primary units. If a distance lines up with both, e.g. 10", then the dimension will will take the same format as the primary units of the job.
IN_FRAC_MM_GA	Specifices the dimension should use IN_FRAC for distances that line up with an inch and MM for distances that line up with a millimeter and GA for gages if the fabricator setup allows non primary units. If a distance lines up with both, e.g. 10", then the dimension will will take the same format as the primary units of the job. This behaves similar to DIA when the primary units are IN_FRAC and primary units are unlocked.
IN_SIX	inch-sixteens, e.g. 13.5 inches would be "13-8"
MM	Millimeters
