Not so easy....

Here's a tip from AUGI

Need to show a drawing with both metric and imperial dims?Set a dimensions style to your metric version then copy it and rework it with imperial settings but set the dimension position to be below the line and to the right - defaults are left and above.Place your metric dimension then place an imperial dim in the same location so that the dim lines are coincident and you will appear to have one dimension with both measures.

Or you could just place on dimension below the other. Either way double your time dimensioning.

....good luck.
