Jodles Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Hi! Is there a way to have AutoCAD use the "right angle symbol" instead of showing 90 degrees when it measures right angles? I looked in the documentation for it, but could not find anything... Thanks! Jodles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Make your own symbol and insert it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nestly Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I think it may be possible to create a dimstyle, but I think it would take some really creative programming to have AutoCAD automatically use the right angle symbol for 90 degrees while using a regular angular dimension for all others.

Dana W Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Draw it, put it over a leader landing, and make a block out of the thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack_O'neill Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 ;)General Notes #43.2 - Any Angle not otherwise labeled is assumend to be 90 degrees. +1 on this one. I thought that was a universal standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 +1 on this one. I thought that was a universal standard. It pretty much is, I think. It's been a long time since I did any mechanical, though. I wonder what the field dudes would say if I dimensioned all the right angles in the architectural plans.
