Adding boxes around scaled dims


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have scaled dims set up for each scale that I use,

1/8", 1/4" 1/2" 3/4", 1", 3", 6", Full Scale

 

I have those set up just fine but I want to add scaled dims with boxes around the text. That way when you look at my drawings you can tell which dims need to be verifed.

 

My dims are scaled under the Fit tab, Scale for dims features, Use overall scale of.

The text/arrows are scaled my that.

 

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks

This maybe?

Setting Dimgap to a negative number will give you the frame also.

Just for info.

 

The tickbox shown in lpseifert's jpg sets the dimension tolerance method to BASIC, this can also be set on the 'Tolerance' tab, indeed in earlier versions it can only be found on the tolerance tab.
