Angular Dims Display
Could someone please tell me how in V10 to dispay angular dimensions in decimal degrees and not degrees, minutes and seconds.
Thanks very much in advance.

You will need to go to Preferences>CAD>Line Properties>Display Line Angle as> and click the radio button for degrees instead of bearing.

Bruce,
I'm pretty sure in ver 10 the angle dimension won't show up in decimal degrees on the plan, only in the specification dialogs. You could put your own label over the dim text.Glenn Zankey

Try the method I mentioned, it shows as degrees in my plan view.

Steve / Glenn,
Thanks to you both, I think I have changed the setting in PREFERENCES / CAD to 'Degrees'. I'll take another look, and likely just type in the angle with text.
