Sometimes when I plot/publish a DWF or PDF the arrows extend past the extension lines. I need the point of my arrows always end at the extension line?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow can I print a dimension with its arrows but without it's dimension lines?
For example--I draw a rectangle and draw a horizontal dimension across the center of the rectangal. Then I flip the arrows and drag the number to the left outside of the rectangal. I want arrows facing inward from the left and right and the number out to the left. I don't want a line stretched across the center of the rectangal.
I have a problem to do oblique dimension with aligning arrows an dimension the isocircle.

If I scale down, they are (obviously) way too big, up, and they are microscopic. How is this best avoided / dealt with? I imagine it is something with the DIMSTYLE not being copied over or something?

If IV2010 allows hiding of the DIMENSION lines and ARROWS in an IDW files? I found a thread from 2009 that says it is impossible.
However, I found a way to hide them on some RETRIEVED dimensins, but not on others.
How to MANUALLY, or to create STYLE that hides MY choice of:
1. EXTENSION LINES,
2. DIMENSION LINES,
3. ARROWS
I have utilized the "old school" Flow Line Lintetype (with the ARROW that is never really centered) for many years
I have been trying to acquire the preferred FlowLine Arrow Linetype (complex with the arrow shape)
So far, I have not succeeded. What is the easiest way to obtain/create this preferred linetype ? (arrow directions change with the direction of the polyline)....
I'm trying to create a Logo in Adobe Illustrator CS4 for a small company which requires me to have 3D arrows originating from a point in all directions. The arrows should be thin and not thick ones. More so, the end effect should be like sparks emanating from a center and in all directions. How to do this in Illustrator CS4 ???

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having an issue with my dimensions. If I have a dimension that is 1'-3" or larger, my extension line beyond my dimension line extends the normal length, but as soon as my dimension goes under 1'-3", the extension line then gets twice as long outside of the dimension line (see attachment). I have researched...and i can't seem to find a dim variable that will let me change this. is there anything to control this happening once my dimension goes below 1'-3"?

When you make a diameter or radius dimension it always has this static extension line shown in red when you move the dimension far enough away. I can not seem to extend this extension line at all it is always the same length no matter what variable I change. How to lengthen this extension line?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIt'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?

By some setting or default, when I dimension a diameter in Autocad 2010, I get a dim line that only has one arrow that points to one side of a circle, just like a radius. I'd like the diameter dims to have an arrow on both sides of circles.
I've been through the settings in Dimstyles. and didn't find a combination that made the desired change. I've looked at the properties for a specific diameter dimension and found nothing that worked there. I looked into block modifications using BEDIT and Properties, but I found nothing there either. While I may have overlooked a combination of changes in Properties, I tried a lot in there.

When I create a line label, one of the components available is “Direction Arrow”. This component is not available for “Curve” labels. I would really like to use C3D labels to indicate direction (I realize curves don't have a 'direction', but I don’t mind manually flipping and reversing the arrow). Is there any other label option in C3D that will draw a direction arrow for curves?
When I did the confirmation after I drew the arrow, it shrank to be small. Like the pictures attached.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using MEP 2011 and have started a new project. Having gone to use the above tool, i am getting no text for the dimension nor the customary arrows at each end of the duct piece i am measuring.
I have attached a small jpeg to illustrate. The dimension is the green line.
I noticed a post a few years ago mentioning this function wasn't available then. Is it still not available? Is there a routine? A lisp? An expression that I can make to put a slope arrow inside every tin in my surface with a % grade?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do I scale dim arrows and text not the value itself to be bigger. if the dim is 1" I want it to stay 1" but just be larger. In autocad there was a variable I could set to scale to different sizes. does this exist with inventor or do I have to go through style editor and manually change the sizes and save off to a new style.

You can see in arrows on # 1 and # 2 3D model, but after using separate into it two parts by slice command , these arrows are disappeared.

I've been asked to create some plots of vector arrows showing the results from water current metres, ie each data point has a position (x and y only), direction and a velocity.
I have created a dynamic block to handle the vector data (a simple arrow with a stretch and rotate controls)
What I need now is to somehow read in the values for each block from an excel spreadsheet or txt file?
