dimension accuracy

Hello, I am having trouble controlling the accuracy level of dimensions when using the "elevation dimension" option (as opposed to the "linear dimension" or "cumulative" options).  In Project preferences my length units are set to 1/16" and my "building scale" dimensions are set to 1 /8".  

 

In my project, I have an element to dimension that is 12'-1 1/8".  When I dimension this with the Elevation Dimension marker, it rounds automatically to 12'-1"--however, when I dimension with the linear method, it shows correctly as 12'-1 1/8".  How can I get the elevation dimension method to display the same way?

 

Thanks,

Loutro

I think oyu need to change the elevation marker settings in the dimension dialog box...  See the attached image.
