i did some more research on settings and such, i checked the CUI settings and i couldn't find anything that differed from any of the other users in our company. Ok, i have some updates but still haven't solved the issue of what's causing this. Thanks for the help michael, hope we can get a few more suggestions. Sorry I sounded wordey, I was just trying to include as much detail to help readers try to narrow down the options.

I selected the viewport and set it to "Send Under Objects" and selected the leader to put it underneath - no change.Īnd finally, I selected "Bring Text and Dimensions to Front" and selected both text and dimensions - no change. I selected the leader+mtext and set it to "Bring Above Objects" and selected the viewport as the object to put the leader on top of - no change. I selected the viewport and set it to "Send to Back" - no change. I've went into DRAWORDER and selected the leader+mtext and set it to "Bring to Front" - no change. on the other hand, I can run a dimension in the same viewport, double click on the text and it will bring up the Properties window like its supposed to. I can make something like a quick leader with some mtext inside the viewport, then try to double click on the text to edit it and get thrown over into MSPACE. text/mtext objects are set to archstyl.shx and labeled in the Dimstyle Control as "DIM" Group can be switched to a special class as needed for visibiliy control.Ĭan use special dims class or default dims class, depending on needs.To no avail, i'm still having the problem. Inside the group add 2d or 3d dims which can show/hide in the various VPs. Place a symbol instance (the regular, original symbol) on the parts dimension layer.Ĭonvert to Group so it is no longer counted as the symbol in the data sets. Manage the new classes in VPs and worksheets. Copy/Paste from original, then redimension? This symbol definition will need updates to match any changes to the original. Place an instance of this new symbol on the parts dimension layer.ĭirect the Worksheet to exclude the layer and various special classes of this special dimensioning symbol. If there are multiple symbol definitions duplicated for dimensions, they can all assign to this same class.Īdd Dimensions to the symbol definition as above. Name it Symbol#1_Dims, or other descriptor.

This makes the symbol definition slightly "heavier", which might affect performance if many instances are placed in Design Layers.ĭuplicate the symbol definition. These dimensioned symbols can be added as resources to other files.ģd dims do not rotate to camera, so have limited effective view/camera angle Direct the Worksheet to exclude the dimensioning layer and any VPs made to illustrate the symbol dimensions. Place an instance of this symbol on the parts dimension layer. (or skip the 2d's and take care of those in the dims VPs). Use the Automatic plane mode to create the 3d dims, and the 2d mode to create the hybrid plan/front/side view dims. Hide the special dims class except as needed in any dims VPs. In the symbol definition, add dimension objects.Ĭreate a special dims class just for these "internal" dims in the symbol definition, eg duplicate the default Dims class and rename Dims-SymbolDef or other descriptor. Some other approaches, not necessarily better, but might serve in different ways:
