Annotative Dimension issues

[HockeyCJ]

One weird thing I can't seem to figure out, is that when I click on the dimensions that are annotative, they show up in a ton of different sizes and then once you cancel it goes back to the normal size. Do you know how to stop it doing that?

 

Thanks

If you have a "ton" of scales associated with your dimension, you probably want to turn of ANNOAUTOSCALE as well, since having a million annotation scales for every dimension defeats some of the benefits of annotative dimensions.

 

If you're interested, there's a great screencast tutorial at Autodesk University called "Size Does Matter: Annotative Scale Feature in AutoCAD" and all the online classes from 2009 became available to everyone as of last week.
