Use the DimStyle command to set the different dimension variables. If you are dimensioning in a layout then you should be using a scale of 1:1. Only your viewports are assigned a scale. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

I thought you were working in a layout. Why are you asking about setting a scale? Check you DimStyle > Modify > Primary Units tab. There is a Scale Factor option there.
And on the Fit tab there is a scaling option where it says Scale for dimension features > Use overall scale of. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

U can get solution by on/off the Supress trailling zeros in Primary Units tab. Work on that & come back. |
