Proctor Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Hello: I recently received a newer version of autocad 09 and cannot find how to set the text size for a Dimension. I've been looking in help, but still am unable to figure it out. Thanks, Proctor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 On the Ribbon click on the Annotate tab. Then on the Dimension panel look in the upper right hand corner. Click on the icon for Dimension Style. When the Dimension Style Manager dialog box appears click on the Modify button (to the right), then click on the Text tab. On the Text tab look for words Text height. Enter your value. Click the OK button at the bottom of the dialog box. Got it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proctor Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 Remark: thanks for your reply. Forgive me .... I do see the Annotate off the menu bar, but your said "on the ribbon click" which I think you might have mean right click? at any rate, if i right click it, i only see "display menu bar" perhaps there's another annotate tab? thanks for helping.

ReMark Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Proctor: I need some enlightenment. The main heading of your thread refers to Mechanical 2009. Your profile mentions straight AC 2006. Which one are we using here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I'm running straight AC 2009 in a 2D workspace. My Ribbon has the following tabs (black background with white letters) from left to right: Home, Blocks & References, Annotate...etc. If I click on the Annotate tab my panels read, from left to right: Text, Dimensions, Multileaders, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
