Im trying to show some measurements in layout view. But when i dimension between 2 points i get the number 71,84. When i use the measure tool in model view i get 1150mm which is the correct length.
Sure there is some simple reason why the two arnt coming in with the same value. Also it isnt an issue with Units as i have checked both and they are both in millimetres.
how to use the measuring tool (ruler icon) but cannot find it anywhere. It is not in my toolbox.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhenever we use measure tool it will show the a dialog box with valves of x,y,z, delta X, delta Y & delta Z. I want to customize the same as per the attached image.
Customize this, dialog box will not disappear(modal) after entering into any other command so no need to remember the values of x,y....etc.
Found that in certain drawings, the measure area tool will just suddenly stop working? It's very odd. It let's me pick points, but won't let me press enter to see the total.
Closing and reopening AutoCAD doesn't work. It seems to be a permanent thing to the affected drawing.
It's happened to me in a few drawings, but only in those specific ones. Other drawings are fine. I'm guessing it's a setting I've changed somehow?
I've been getting round it by creating shapes using the polyline, and then looking at the area in the properties window. It's an ok solution, but not ideal.
I have a VBA form coded that we use to generate part numbers and descriptions that then populate the iProperties. We often use the part sizes in the description. I would like to be able to put a button on the form that allows users to use the "Measure Distance" tool so that they can measure the part while they are creating the description.
Any code that I could use to activate the "measure" tool while a vba form is active?
Measure Tool Not Displaying Results In Autocad 2013 Mac
View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to measure the distance in assembly.
The distance is between two hole axis.
I use Measure Distance tool.
I do not have the “Select Other” option to choose axis supposedly pop up ofter the preset delay time. Seems like Application Option – General – Selection is responsible for that?
But it is checked to ON as on pic attached. My laptop machine works fine with the same settings.
The measure tool is not giving me the correct measurement. For example, I offset a line 24' and when I go to double check the distance it is off by .03. That is starting on the original line and doing a perpendicular snap to the other line. So I thought, wait a minute that can't be right, so I drew a line between the two lines and did an inquiry and it gave me 24'.
I also did a dimension which also was correct. I also measured a 97' line and it was off by 3 feet. Never had issues with previous versions of Autocad as far as measuring.
I've figured some things out, but am struggling with what appears to be a very valuable tool... the area tool.
I found many references to the boundary tool, but that looks more complicated.
I have figured out how to mark the corner and press enter, but the output is for example 1.7 sq ft vs. what should be approx 35K sq ft.
I tried to change the units, but that didn't seem to make a difference.
Can we use measure tool without having to open the part file?
Say directly in the viewer or in vault viewer.

is it possible to measure the distance between two lines but is it possible to set the scale (calibrate) to customize the dimensions. For example, we have pictures with a ruler in them and we need to set the scale in PS to equal the scale on the ruler.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIn CS, I observed and confirmed with other users the following behavior:
1. Use Measure Tool to establish horizon
2. Image > Rotate > Arbitrary
3. Image > Adjust > Levels
At this point, Measure Tool reverts to Eyedropper Tool. For my workflow, this is lots of extra clicking. Would someone please check this in CS4 and see if the Measure Tool stays as Measure Tool?

I am unable to use the measure tool. When I use it, the distances and angles keep adding to the last reading and these cumulated readings are of no use.
How to start a fresh set of measurements within the same session?
This is most likely a stupid question but it has had me stumped for a while... Every time I close an image the eyedropper tool pops back to the top. What do I have to do to keep the measure tool on top?

Using 3D-SB you can have a glance insidea 3D modell and there be objects that only have a elevaton and no other properties except New Constuction (Specialty Equipment). So confirming space is a pain.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is a good way to get the perpendicular distance from a face to a point in a model. I know that solidworks always shows a triangle when you use the dimesion tool so you don't always have just the diagonal dimension. I know this may be a little hard to understand so i've attached a picture of what I'm talking about
View 9 Replies View RelatedI seem to be running into a wall here, I have created an annotative dimension and copied it to the tool palette. When I go to dimension something in a new dwg that does not have the new annotation style, the dimension style does not keep its annotation setting. It brings in the annotation style but not the annotation setting.

At the moment i have to change them every time i use the tool!
I have been drawing the drafting lines and measurements manually and noticed the dimensions tool. Works great but when I shrink the layout for proofing the measurements change. Is there a setting that I can select that will keep the actual measurements of the drawing no matter how I resize it for proofing?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a plot plan, that is rotate about 31 degrees off true north. So when I draw inside the plan, I rotate the UCS to be able to follow a "plant" north.
> UCS > point 1 > point 2 (along x axis) > point 3 (along y axis)
> PLAN > enter > enter
Now, I'm trying to measure a distance between 2 points with my drawing rotated along a new UCS. However, it keeps giving me the measurements as if it were still in the WORLD UCS.....so my x and y values are weird numbers instead of the nicely rounded numbers to which I have offset from a certain point.
> DIST > point 1 > point 2
How do I get my distance to show me what the x and y distances are in the UCS that I have rotated to, instead of showing me the x and y distances based on the WORLD UCS?
it seems like in the past whenever i made either artistic text or paragraph text color default, that was reflected in the control Text using the Dimension tool.
but no matter what changes i make in X6, it remains a chalky blue.
X4 user here that upgraded to X6 a few weeks ago. One thing that's blowing my gord is having my dimensions "lock" to guidelines and/or objects -- My dimensions aren't locked in the classic sense, i understand how to lock a dimension in corel. What i mean every time i create a dimension with master guides, and then try to move my guides, my dimension moves with it.
The worst of it is that i'm mostly getting them linked to master guidelines, so when i create a new page, say page 2, and want to move a master guide, i go back to page 1, and it has messed up all my dimensions.
And no, i do not want to break my dimension apart, I need it to stay as a working dimension!
