Commands: Dim -> point 1 is corner in magenta circle, point 2 is endpoint within yellow sphere, all on the current UCS plane. UCS origin set to yellow sphere, vertical plane. UCS origin set to red sphere, vertical plane. UCS origin set to the red sphere, parallel with ground. See attached image for reference on the second one. I want to dumb it back down so it is usable. NEVER had these types of issues with the older versions. Osnaps are off, so it's not jumping based on an unseen endpoint) (If I have a line at 45 degrees, and click on the two lines to do that, it flips it to the outside and shows 135, even though where I click to place it is at 45, and it SHOWS 45 in the preview.

set the origin to the corner of the solid, and the ucs to the plane I want to dimension, and the dimensions to appear on, and then try to put in linear dimensions, say for a component 15' long, it throws in a 2 3/4' dimension way off the object, on a completely different ucs/plane than where I'm clicking.Īnother - Still in pspace, dimensioning on a viewport to the model in mspace, I put in an angular dimension, and it looks correct when picking the second line, but as soon as I click to place it, it flips it outside. Others, trying to do a schematic iso in modelspace (looking similar to oblique dims when done). Others, I click on a single line, and it tries to add an angular dimension. Depending on which object geometry I click in the solid, it will NOT add an angular dimension because things are in at odd angles. 3d model in modelspace, in a viewport in paperspace - Trying to dimension a miter angle on top of one of the viewports. 2016 for instance) used to work? With the 'smarter' dimensioning that Adesk has built in, I am having a lot more trouble getting dimensions in to the drawings, and in some cases, can't get it to work at all.įor instance. Is there a setting that will change the 'new-upgraded-better' dimension workflow back to how older (say. Have a previous post where I touched on this, but have used it a lot more, so different questions added in this time, but still some of the previous as well.
