AutoCad :: Can't Change Dimension Text Size

Oct 11, 2010

Whenever I try to dimension a drawing in model space the text of the dimension comes out unreadably small.

I go into dimension style manager, I click on modify and I click on the text tab but the text height and fraction height scale is greyed out!

If I click on "new" dimension style the only option I get is to base it off my current dimension style with the text size greyed out again.

How to change the text size of dimensions if at the option is greyed out?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Drawing Dimension Text And Symbols Font With ILogic

Nov 2, 2012

I was looking to change the fonts in a drawing for the Dimensions and Symbols that might have been inserted in the Dimension text entries.

This can be done manually bu editing the dimentions text after placemement, but I was ooking to set this as a default.. I cannot see where exactly this is controlled in the Styles Manager - I am only able to change the Dimension text font but the diameter symbol font is always on AIGDT.

I was therefore looking for an iLogicvb code that could do the trick, but I am not able to even change the dimension fonts... The code runs with no errors but nothing gets updated in the drawing...

Dim oDoc As DrawingDocument
oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oSheet As Sheet
oSheet = oDoc.ActiveSheet

[Code]....

InventorVb.DocumentUpdate()

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Change Dimension Size

Sep 22, 2012

I am in inventor and I need to draft up some diagrams for a lab report for school. They all have to be to scale so my dimensions will work properly, the only problem is, when I want to take a screenshot of the image to put into my document, the dimensions are way too **** small. I have tried everything to change them and nothing has worked. I don't know where my command line window is so I can't go directly to dimstyles.

AutoCad :: How To Change Whole Drawing To New Dimension Values

Oct 8, 2010

I have a complete gearbox drawing from a previous work and I would like to use it again but with different dimensions.
If I edit the dimensions and enter different values its not enough because when I hit the inquiry tab and dimension, obviously it will be the old measure value.

My question would be how to change the whole drawing to a new dimension values? I think there is no need to redone the whole gearbox again with new dimensions. My drawing is in metric (millimeters).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Dimension In Drawing To New Point / No Snaps?

Oct 9, 2013

I seem to recall being able to do this in 2013...

Say you've dimensioned something but end up wanting to change the dimension definition points...drag the end point to another location that you want dimensioned.

I thought it used to snap to a new location, but now it will not. I have to redraw the dimension (including all text I added).

Here is what I get when I try to move the dimension definition point:

Here is what I get when I try the auto-reattach feature in "repair". Still nothing to snap to.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Changing Dimension Text Size

Nov 25, 2011

I have been working on some spec sheets and, ideally, would like the text size larger to improve readability. When creating text, changing the size is as easy as editing the text and changing the size. With a dimension, however, that method doesn't work. Is there an easy way to change a dimension's text size without having to make a change in the styles??

AutoCAD 2013 :: Dimension Fill Color Text Box Size

Oct 24, 2013

I have the fill color turned on in my dimension style to background.  I want to adjust the "masking" box size.  Just as you are able to in the text edit-background mask.  I believe the default must be 1.25 larger than the text.  I would like it to be 1.00.  Is this possible?  You can adjust the text background mask size, but not the dimension mask size.

AutoCad 2D :: How To Change Text Size In MText

Mar 31, 2011

I am having issues with text size when I attempt to change the text size in MTEXT. It is set to copy the last size I used but when I need to edit the size, it multiplies what I enter by 8 and turns inches into feet. In other words, I try to resize 6" to 3". The text editor will then multiply 3" x 8 and size the text to 24 feet.
