Is there a way to change the default thickness of a constrained block?
WHen woking in inches it defaults to 0.7" I would like it to be 0.75"

Add a line in your top.cfg, or possibly $TOPCONFIG\V6XX\topzwoo.cfg

D_SH_BLOCK_CONSTRAINT_THICKNESS 0.75

Check Your numbers :)

Thanks for the tip RM!

For me, I had to make the change in my top.cfg file.

Also, everything in my file is metric which it converts to imperial so I had to set the value to 0.01905 (19.05mm)
