mohsen Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 I've just found the way! lol tnx 2 all anyway Quote
Tankman Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I've just found the way! lol tnx 2 all anyway Welcome to the forums mohsen! Where are you posting from? My, that was easy. And, why did you want to change the dimension from 14 to 5? Quote

Welcome to the forums mohsen, but I have to say.....fudging dimensions is frowned upon around here, leads to all kinds of complications..... Quote
mohsen Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 hi again thats not the way u think my friend, tnx for reply Quote
Tiger Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Mohsen, no harshness against you, but you willl notice if you stay around here (which I hope) that not only will get you advice on how to use AutoCAd, but also how to be a bettter drafter. Which is why Bonehead commented like he did. And I will second his comment. In my opinion, there are very few reasons to override a dimension... Quote

The most you want to change is the precision. Quote
bonehead411 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 In my opinion, there are very few reasons to override a dimension... Agreed. If the geometry is right, the dimension will be too. If the geometry is not right, make it so. Otherwise, how can you be sure it will work? And yes, I speak from experience! Quote
chauhanvikash Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 just select and edit the dimension Quote
JD Mather Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 In 2010 if you use geometry constraints and parametric dimensions you can double click on dimension to edit and your geometry will update automatically. Quote
