Diameter Input

[dmealer]

Whenever I create a circle in Solidworks, it always asks for the radius of the circle, not the diameter. Is there a way to change it so SW asks for the circles diameter by default instead.

Thanks,

You can enter the diameter followed by /2 which will divide the figure by 2.

Yes, I know this. But I would rather just enter the Dia. if you can change a setting.

Thanks for your reply!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you go ahead and draw the circle, then put a "smart dimension"on it, it will ask for a diameter input.
