How do we flip the dimension numbers from one side of the line to another?
My dimension always appears on the left hand side for a vertical line and on the top for horizontal line... Can I make them appear on the bottom or right side?
I would like to create text prefix "aa" and remove measurement (numbers indicating length )
How to remove this measurement ?
Set wymiartyprot01 = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.AddDimRotated(pkta01ScPgSr, pktaOsHorPSrg01,pkta01ScPgz, k90Deg)
wymiartyprot01.TextPrefix = "aa"
How do I get the measurement and bearing on my dimension lines? Example would be from the Oleson village dimensions.

I understand that in previous versions of AutoCAD you could just right click -> flip arrow heads, but this version (AutoCAD Electrical 2014) seems to lack this feature...

In the screenshot below, the default direction of dimensions constrains are given in the direction of digitizing (by design)
How this direction might be flipped?
For example, in the ArcGIS software, one can see the direction of digitizing as well as flipping it
Software: AutoCAD 2014, AutoCAD C3D, AutoCAD M3D, Revit
Windows 7 (Ultimate 64 bits),
Firefox 20.0,
Kaspersky 2013.
Please take a look at the attached dynamic block.
I have two flips in there, one verticle, one horizontal. For some reason, whenever I tell it to flip, and then select everything in the block, it doesn't flip the other flip's arrow.
Then, when I created the second arrow, and went back to include the first flip in the second flip's Action Selection Set, it doesn't pick it up. Doesn't matter if I do "modify selection set" or "new selection set"... doesn't matter if I select everything within (blue box) or everything that touches (green box).
Yet, when I highlight the icon box, it shows everything is selected.
Can flips not flip other flips?
Additionally, I want the rotation parameter to flip on the horizontal flip (so it stays outside the block), but I can't get that into the selection either.
What am I missing with these selection parameters?

there is no value, why?
Is there such a software from autodesk that would open iam files and let the user to take measurement only?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is any way to temporarily mark measurements that I have made with the Measure function so I can go back and start a line at that point. Each time I use Measure, the information disappears when I go to another function.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'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.

It sounds strange to do this but the letter represents a dimension in a chart format that are Basic dimensions.

I've recently re-install my AutoCAD on my Win7 PC and now whenever I try to draw a Line, there's this automatic measurement of the length of the line I'm stretching. It is really causing a lag on my PC for some reason and I seem to can't find a way to turn it off.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI needed to know the Side Opposite so that I could subtract that amount from a known line length.
I knew the angle (24) and the side adjacent (.9375) therefore SIN 24 = X/.9375 .0467= X/.9375 = .3813
When I measure the side opposite I get .4172
See attached screenshot.
I use to work drawing, calculating and budgeting corrugated steel for foundations and I always have the same problem. Once i have desinged and drawn all the lines (or polilines) i have to count every single corrugated steel to know how many of them I have in order to know metters of steel that we have to order to the manufacturer.
any command that autocad has to measure this kind of lines or polilines?how many metters of corrugated steel I have.

How to convert the “existing” hatch from one measurement to another?
In the screenshot below, the first hatch is drawn with “measurement” = 1 (metric), while the second is drawn when the measurement = 0 (imperial). The “measurement” value is not a property for the hatch!
Then how to convert the hatch that already exist and drawn with the “measurement” = 0 to the “measurement” = 1.
In other words, how to switch all the hatches in a particular plan from being “imperial” based (measurement = 0) to “metric” (measurement = 1)?
Is there a way to do that? Or should we delete the existing hatches and re-draw them with the required setting (metric/imperial)?
I've just downloaded Autocad 2013 and I cannot figure out how to measure linear or angular dimensions. I'm familiar with older versions of Autocad, but this is the first time I've tried to use 2013.
