Dimension settings keep changing!

Anonymous
Not applicable
I've tried searching this issue here but haven't found anything. I'm having trouble with my dimension settings. I started a new dwg (first time with AC 11 on this computer) and I set up my preferences. For some reason it keeps reverting back to the metric set up for the dimensions (but not any other preferences). I've created my own custom dimension and it keeps changing that one too. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. It also keep rounding up even though I have it set to show fractions and my precision is set to 1/32". Any ideas?? I'm sure I'm missing something very simple here... Thanks!

Just a notion, but:

How likely is it that you have confused working units with Dimension units?

Also check:
Views save the dimension settings. So if your clicking a on a view from the view set in the navigator it could be changing the dimension settings back.

You may need to resave your views so the dimension settings stick to your preference.
