AutoCAD Inventor :: Dimension Style Radius Vs Diameter

Jan 4, 2013

I am trying to edit my drawing template dimension style to always do a diameter (if it is a circle). Right now it defaults to radius and I manually right click and change it. I found all sorts of styles for how it displays the radius and diameter, but didn't find where to set the default.

We need re-location the diameter dimension after we change the drawing view's scale. but we didn't know how to change the Startpoint of the dimension (mark with Red word "1"), just find the text location.

Who knows how to set the new point to for the startpoint?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Placing Dimension From Line To Tangent Of Diameter?

Nov 16, 2011

I am trying to create a dimension in an .idw that goes from a line to the tangent of the outer diameter.  I have tried several approaches but I cannot get it to work.  Essentially I am trying to replicate a drawing which was created in Solidworks but I am having trouble with this dimension.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Linear Diametric Full Dimension Line Default Setting?

Apr 5, 2012

Autodesk Inventor 2010 .idw Drawing Detail - Where is the default setting for "Full Dimension Line" so that I can set it to always be on when placing a linear diametric dimension? I would prefer to turn it off on the few occasions when dimensioning a diameter on a Detail View that does not include the center line rather than each and every diameter on a section view. This is necessary because a diameter symbol does not show up in the diameter dimension unless the full distance line it is selected, which is not always possible. I am aware of the Application Option setting that allows Linear Diametric as a preference, which becomes the default for all dimensions, and it is user specific rather than document specific.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Turn Off Visibility Of Diameter Dimension Extension Line

Jul 5, 2012

It's 2012. I haven't found a setting in the dim style or the RMB options to turn off the extension line. I saw the posts showing drawing a sketch in the view but come on, all that to just turn off the line?

AutoCad :: Store Linear Dimension Properties

Nov 23, 2012

How I can get AutoCad to store my preferred "linear dimension" properties (i.e. arrow size, line weight etc).

Currently the standard setting are not what I use and every time I open a new drawing I have to go into amend a new linear properties and also any new linear dims I create has the standard settings.

I usually create one then "match" it's properties but it's still a bind creating the first one correctly.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Dimension Linear Distance From Draw

Mar 21, 2012

I'm using AUTOCAD 2011 x64 (E.208.0.0)I get the dimension linear tool;I specify the first extension line origin clicking somewhere;I specify the second extension line origin clicking somewhere; (ortho mode on)

Then I pull the mouse pointer to the direction I want the dimension go and I type 1, because I want the dimension lie down at a distance of 1 unit from the draw (a wall for example).

If I check the distance from the draw to the dimension line (not to the text) using de "Inquiry > Distance" tool I do not have that 1 unit I have typed, instead it retrieve a value like 0.9822, and this value varies on a random way, every time its different.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Diameter Dimension Out Of View From Detail View?

Dec 13, 2011

I have a detail view of a groove on a cylinder.  I want to dimension a diameter in which I only see one side, the other side is not in the detail view. 

From some posts I see that I should auto insert a centerline then dimension from centerline then choose options "dimension linear". 

First when I try to auto insert centerlines it does not insert the centerline for me.  Perhaps because my detail is smaller.  If I make the field for the detail view larger it makes a centerline, but I dont want to do that.  I have tried making a sketch of the other side and the centerline.  When I dimension from here I do not have the right click option of dimension linear, instead only arrowhead options.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Override A Dimension To Create A Basic Dimension?

Jun 27, 2011

Is there a way to override a dimension and have it shown as a GD&T Basic dimension. I can override a dimension with the text option but not with a box around the letter. It sounds strange to do this but the letter represents a dimension in a chart format that are Basic dimensions.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Radius / Diameter Dimension Style

Jul 5, 2012

When I dimension an arc to find the radius, the dimesnions appears as a line going from teh center of the arc to the edge of the arc with the dimension in the middle. I don't want this. I want a leader pointing to the R text and that's it.

I've attached a photo of both scenarios- one dimension is the style I don't want, and one is basically the style I want (I'd like it to be more of an elbowed leader line), but it only appears when I use AutoCAD's ISO25 dimension style.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Diameter Dimension Not Rotating Correctly

Jun 11, 2013

We have been having an issue with this for a long time in hopes of it being fixed in any new release.  If I click Diameter and pull it to the OD of hte circle it shows as in the picture which is what we want.  If I pull it to the ID it pulls straight from that point and the dimension is not level.

The only way we can fix it is click on it, go to properties, scroll down to text, and in the text rotation box, type 90.1 and hit enter.

Is there if fix for this issue?

Illustrator :: How To Draw Circle Diameter By Typing Width Dimension

Jul 26, 2013

According to the tool pallet instructions, I should be able to draw a circle of specific diameter by typing in the "width" dimension, then, according to Illustrator: "you can click on the word Height to copy that value into the Height box." Doesn't work. I've trashed the AI prefs, clicked on the word and on the field, and this simply doesn't work. I assume that I or my system is at fault.

AutoCad 2D :: Get Dimension Text That Pull Out To Side Closer To Actual Dimension Marks?

Jun 2, 2011

I'm trying to get the dimension text that I pull out to the side closer to the actual dimension marks. The 2 1/2" and 2" shown have a minimum distance they can get toward their dimensions. I would like it to be about half of what it is, but so far I haven't been able to find the property that changes that.

AutoCad 2D :: Override Dimension With Formula / Function That Relates To The Length Of Dimension

Feb 10, 2012

Is it possible to override a dimension with some sort of formula or function that relates to the length of the dimension?

A simple linear scaling might be possible by inventing a new unit with the appropriate conversion ratio, but that wouldn't work. What I need for the dimension to display a length 400 less than the actual length.
