CADgirl Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Ok I have not been able to find a solution to this problem. I was sent the floor plan of a building and I am drawing the rcp. I am trying to add some dimensions but they are upside down. The ucs is at world and mirrtext is at 0. I don't know what to do now! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

MaxwellEdison Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Nothing immediately springs to mind. Any chance you can wblock a dimension out an upload it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADgirl Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 I did forget to mention though that I rotated my viewport. I don't know if that would make a difference or not. Here is the wblock. new block.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnM Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 are you working in your template with your dimensions or someone elses drawing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADgirl Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 I got the drawing from somebody so I am using their dim styles- but it's on my own computer and everything. I also made a new dim style and it did the same thing. So that made me think that that wasn't the problem- but then again I have no idea what the problem is.

JohnM Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 working in a rotated viewport will do that, try highliting all the dimensions then in the properties box change the text rotation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADgirl Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 Ok so it was because my viewport was rotated. Thank you guys sooo much for helping me out! I'm glad I know what was causing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertR Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 (edited) I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted to leave this lisp here for the next person who seeks an answer to this problem. (defun c:DIMT180 (/ en1 en2 enXt env) (setq en2 nil) (prompt "Pick dimension") (while (not en2) (setq en2 (entsel)) (if en2 (progn (setq ent (entget (setq en1 (car en2)))) (if (/= "DIMENSION" (cdr (assoc 0 ent))) (setq en2 nil) ) ) ) ) (command "undo" "mark") (if (assoc 53 ent) (progn (setq env (+ (cdr (assoc 51 ent)) pi)) (setq ent (subst (cons 51 env) (assoc 51 ent) ent)) ) (progn (setq ent (append ent (list (cons 51 pi)))) ) ) (entmod ent) (princ) ) Edited March 25, 2013 by SLW210 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PotGuy Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I think the defib may be 3 years late. Good to know though and good code! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
