Oblique dimensioning problem

[s3101959]

Hi guys, I have a problem to do oblique dimension with aligning arrows an dimension the isocircle. Does anyone know how to fix this. Cheers

This is a 2D isometric drawing right?

[s3101959]

yes you are right.... the arrows look really awkward if they are not aligned

Can you post the .dwg?

[s3101959]

for sure. The second question would be how can i dimension the isocircle of diameter 2 as usual. Cheers

I would create a couple of different dimension styles and appropriate arrowheads to go with them if I found myself having to do these types of drawings on a regular basis. Is this a class assignment?

[s3101959]

This is not an assignment but i m going through some exercises in a workbook atm because i really want to pick up Autocad.

Someone gave me this a long time ago. Maybe it might be of some help.

[s3101959]

Thanks but the tips is to dimension the text instead. What i want to do is to align the arrows. The dimension of isocircles remain an issue as well.

You dimension to the center of the isocircle and then call out the diameter

 

You need some isometric arrowheads too don't you? Can't use the default ones as they don't look right.

do you know what command should i use? I tried out all of them but none of them seems working for isocircle. Cheers

[s3101959]

do you know which command is the most appropriate to use for isocircle dimensioning cuz normal dimrad just doesnt work. cheers

Insert the attached drawing into your drawing, use the various styles and follow the instructions to oblique the dims.
