You can change your dimension style or adjust dimensions individually. See the tip

Vladimir, your tip did not work for me. I am using AutoCad 21026 in the U.S. and my Primary units window looks nothing like yours.

If the difference is just the language:
In the Zero suppression part of the Dimension Style dialog box's Primary Units tab, un-check the "0 inches" box, so that 0" will not be suppressed.

To ensure that the "-0" appears in your dimensions (for example, showing 8'-0" instead of just 8') in AutoCAD 2026, go to the command line and type DIMSTYLE, then press Enter. In the Dimension Style Manager, select your current dimension style and click Modify. Next, navigate to the Primary Units tab and under Zero Suppression, uncheck both the "Suppress trailing zeros" and "Suppress zero inches" options. Ensure that your Unit Format is set to Architectural and your Precision is set to at least 0'-0".
