    Snap on Dimension

    Is there a way to get the X-Y Position value to match the cursor position shown at the lower right? It appears that the dimension is set to show 4 digits right of decimal point, whereas the cursor position is limited to 3 digits right of decimal point.

    Let me restate my question: Is there a means to set or increase the number of decimal places shown in the lower right cursor position display?

    My dimension decimal places is set to 4, the cursor position displays 3 digits right of decimal point, so that when I select x-y position, and the selector cursor is around a point (not 'near'), then the displayed x-y dimension value can differ from the indicated cursor value by anywhere from .0001 to .0009

    Thanks in advance.
