ryank7 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I'm having trouble displaying the units for dimensions. The issue is with the suffix. When I add the " suffix to indicate inches autocad also adds the suffix to the angular dimension. 2 questions... Is there a way to suppress the suffix for angular dimensions? Do I need to have a dimension style just for angular dimension? I do not want to dimension in architectural because I don't want the dimensions to change to feet and inches. Quote
nestly Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 You can set up a "child" dimension style, so one dimstyle automatically adds the suffix to linear and aligned dimensions, but not to angular, radial or diametric dimensions. Here's a couple of demo videos I did for previous threads here at Cadtutor Quote
