Dimensions explode by default???


Recommended Posts

Posted

I got a new base file from a client, and every time I draw a dimension, it 1) asks me for text input (default to measurement), and 2) is exploded when drawn. I have never had the dimension commands do either of these before. I'm assuming this is a setting somewhere I can undo? Again, using the same dimension commands I have always used with no problem until today.

This behavior is controled by DIMASSOC system variable which is set to 0 in that trouble-maker drawing; adjust it to 2.

but here is a little more grist for the exploded dimension hell mill.

Thanks. I've actually never used that variable before, or even heard of it. Problem solved. =)
