Jun 30, 2011My office has two desktop printers, both HP. Our Officejet 7000 wide format prints great. On the HP Officejet 7500, we are often seeing text printing errors. It will not print the text from vertical dimension strings, and cuts off some M-text at an imaginary vertical line in the middle of the text box. PDF's of the same drawing look fine. Is this a printer driver issue? Is there anything I can do within AutoCAD?

Mar 5, 2013We have detail drawings that contain horizontal and vertical dimensions. They're drawn at full scale in model space and saved as individual drawings. We then insert them as blocks onto a sheet in paper space, scaling them down to 1/2", 1/4" scale ETC.
Here's the problem - all the vertical dimension text appears bolder than everything else when scaled down. Horizontal text is just fine, diagonal text also looks a little bolder though.

Revit :: How To Make Dimension Text Smaller
Nov 29, 2007I would like to make the dimension text smaller so that the information doesn't become so crowded. I notice that the dimensions are written like 12' - 10 3/4", with a space between the ' and the - and a space between the - and the 10, rather than 12'-10 3/4", like an old-fashioned person like me would write. Is there a way to control that? I looked into the dimension edit dialog box & couldn't see a way. AutoCAD writes them like I like.

AutoCad 3D :: Dimensions To Vertical In The Isometric
Jul 23, 2012I'm working on a project where I've modeled obstacles for an obstacle course on a military installation and I'm having some issues with isometric views and adding dimensions at various UCS orientations.
Basically, each obstacle has a plan view and an isometric to depict height of some of the material above ground level and below.
I've tried re-orienting the UCS to accomodate the dimensions and it works to a degree but there has to be an easier way.
When I select the points for my dimension, I'm prompted...
Specify dimension line location or
[Mtext/Text/Angle/Horizontal/Vertical/Rotated]:
I need the dimensions to be vertical in the isometric. I've been messing with it and I was able to eventually get it right but is there an easier way?
Whenever the dimension is drawn in model space the dimenion ends up far from where it needs to be. I always have to relocate it and re-select where I want the dimension lines to be.
Also, is there some kind of add-on that might make 3D dimensions easier?
Also, I have a thin solid representing the ground level so that everything below ground level results in a hidden line (due to the visual style I'm using) in the isometric drawings.
This works out great but any dimensions below ground level end up hidden. I don't think there is any way around this though with the style I have in use.
I've gone with simple callouts specifying overall material heights to avoid these issues in the meantime.

Mar 12, 2012I have build a solid in which the projection of the hole on the face of the cube is an ellipse. However, as I did not create the ellipses on the faces, but the ellipses are just the result of the projection of an empty egg inside an extruded rectangle on the faces of the extruded rectangle. How can I see the dimensions of the ellipses? I tried to use the measure distance command, but with no success.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD .NET :: Programmatically Adding Vertical Dimensions Outside Of Extension Lines
Aug 10, 2012I have programs that at some point or another create dimensions for what was drawn. When you have a vertical dimension that doesn't fit between the extension lines, it will either go up and to the right or down and to the left.
I can change it manually by selecting the dimension and then right click and pick Dim Text position > Move with leader.
What I want to know is, is there a way to set the vertical dimension where you want it programatically? I would like to put the vertical dimension down and to the right of the arrows if possible.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Regular Dimensions Are Not Changed As Constrains Dimension Are
Mar 7, 2012The “regular dimensions” are not changed as the “constrains dimension” are!
I’m wondering why the “regular dimension” don’t change automatcislly as the “constrains dimension” change?
Do we really need to re-make all the regular dimension manually? How does this increase the performance and the integrity of the work?
Is there some workaround to have the “regular dimensions” change as the “constrains dimension” do?
