Solidworks Template HELP

I am really having trouble setting up a SolidWorks template that will do what I need it to do. I've failed to find a way to make and be able to select my own templates for drawings, parts, and assemblies. I am having great difficulty with SolidWorks rounding all of my units and not displaying more than two. I would REALLY appreciate it if someone would be willing to work with me to get this set up, I would even be willing just to use templates your team has established already. Thanks for your time and I hope to hear back from somebody or to be referred to someone who could help me.

Re: Solidworks Template HELP

Based on your question I think you are looking for setting up a part template including setting the default precision and units. This video shows all the steps. Make sure to watch the whole thing - it has all the steps to make sure any custom templates you create show up!

Note: I have not tested this on SW 2014 yet, but is consistent with all the times I have done it on older versions of SW.

P.S. As the author briefly mentions, you can use this same process for Assemblies and Drawings. If you want the same precision and unit settings in all 3, you need a new template for all 3!
