Ordinate vs linear dimensioning

I have my global settings to display dual-dims; mm [inch], with .00 and .000 precision, respectively.

If I'm doing linear dimensioning, this works perfectly. :D

Why is it that when I am using ordinate, that it defaults to mm only?
Then, I have to spend a lot of time changing properties of all the dimensions to display the secondary (inch) dims AND set the secondary precision to .000 becasue it wants to default to .00 :evil:
WASTE O' TIME!

On another issue, after I save a drawing, quit the drawing, add a feature to the part used in the drawing (or just modify dimensions), save, quit and reload the drawing, my new feature doesn't display, or the dimensions aren't updated. What am I doing/not doing to warrent this? :?

Thanks for any/all hep,
