CADkitt Posted October 6, 2010 Posted October 6, 2010 It turns out that the client always wants it a certain way, and that each client is different. Then they realize that's not really what they wanted, so they ask you to fix it and redo it the way you were originally going to do it, had it been up to you. Man oh man, the day I found out about the CHSPACE was one of the happiest days of my life. :-D I was at a toss-up between doing dimensions in the paperspace, or doing them in modelspace. Dimensioning in paperspace always seems easier to me because you can maintain your frame of reference (so you know everything is the right scale, orientation, etc) with the title block. However, I think the dimensions are best kept in model space, especially for the surveys and site plans I work on, which end up moving around a lot in the preliminary stages, and it's nice to be able to move the dimensions with the rest of the model. So now, I usually end up doing the dimensions in paperspace to make sure they were the right style and size, then just moving them into model space once I get everything the way I want it. Problem solved. haha I had that to a college, he just worked 2 days on deleting dimensions in mspace and placing them in pspace. I was like euhhh chspace does it in 1 minute.... And I even have a script that does it in 1 sec. Should have seen the look on his face haha btw my 2 cents. It is choosing between two evils. Some situations don't require using pspace and some do. (most do btw) Quote
