Dimension Help Adding to a dimension

Is there a way to add extra to a dimension.

Example: I have a dimension of 38" but i want the dimension to show 38 1/2". I always want to add either 1/4" of 1/2" to the actual dimension..

Its a little much to explain but just know i need it to do so...

Thanks

Are you thinking of using the Text Override?

Change your dimesion suffix to 1/2 or 1/4.

Dimensions-->Dimensions Style-->Overide-->Primary Units-->Suffix.

Like lee suggest

Use the quick select from the properties dialog box to select the dimensions you want to change

In the dialog box put ¼” in the text over ride box = original dimension then a space then ¼”

Then below find the suffix box and delete the contents so the change will read 38 ¼” not 38” ¼”

Quick and dirty

Do you want to change all dimensions in the drawing or just some?

The more detailed information you post the better answers you will receive.

What about this...

(defun c:Test (/ #Choice #Suffix #SS)
 (vl-load-com)
 (and
   (not (initget 0 "1 2"))
   (setq #Choice (getkword "\nDimension Suffix (1 = ½/2 = ¼) [1/2]: "))
   (cond ((eq #Choice "1") (setq #Suffix "½"))
         ((eq #Choice "2") (setq #Suffix "¼")))
   (setq #SS (ssget ":L" '((0 . "DIMENSION"))))
   (foreach x (mapcar 'vlax-ename->vla-object
                      (vl-remove-if 'listp
                        (mapcar 'cadr (ssnamex #SS))))
     (vla-put-textsuffix x (strcat " " #Suffix "\""))))
 (princ))
