Having an issue where inch-fractional dimensions have the space between the full inch and the fraction removed.
In R6, using the same dimstyle setup, the fraction shown below reads as 84 3/4". In R8, either the space is nonexistent or the kerning is weird, because no matter the font it reads as 843/4".
Help? This is kind of a show-stopper.
SystemInfo to follow.

Agreed this is not ideal- will write it up as a bug and get it fixed.
in the meantime you can add space in the line in the properties over ride here.
RH-80143 Inch Fractional Dimensions missing a space
When I click on a dimension, the only text that’s shown is <>. I really can’t be going in and manually overwriting all the dimensions I make, the increased time would be tremendous.
(Edit - Oh, I see what you did there. Copying the displayed text, pasting, then editing…still, I can’t be doing that)
For the meantime, I’m having to switch to stacked fractions - our shop prefers non-stacked (so reading as 84 3/4") because it’s more readable for them.
Cheers!
yep, this is a pain point for sure. Thanks for pointing it out.
on the pile, hope to get it tuned up asap-
@dale I attached one to the YT
Hi Dale,
It’s kind of a general problem. Any of them that I use, even using the Default dimstyle (when set to no stacking).
I suppose opening a new file and dropping some dimensions in will show this.

RH-80143 is fixed in Rhino 8 Service Release 4
