ibnut Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Can't seem to figure this one out. I've exhausted all combinations of appearance/offset/fit/alignment in style properties. Does anyone know why this happens or how to fix it? It only happens whenever I try to adjust the position of the dimension (via middle grip). It also only happens with dual dimensions.

rkent Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Would you post a drawing showing this behavior? What font are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nestly Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I also see the same behavior (I'm using AutoCAD2011 at the moment) As soon as the text position is altered, vertical spacing changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackfish Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Which one is wrong? PS. What is unusual for me is that in the first dimension the line in the middle is continuous, usually text has a wipeout behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibnut Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Would you post a drawing showing this behavior? What font are you using? This happens with every drawing (to my knowledge), regardless of font. I've tried it with all versions 2008-2013. Thanks for the visual nestly... that's exactly what I'm talking about!

What is unusual for me is that in the first dimension the line in the middle is continuous, usually text has a wipeout behind. The top left and bottom right (the two dimensions that he adjusted). The vertical spacing between the two dimension values shifted as soon as their positions are altered. In my example, I have the text setting set to be above the dimension line with no fill. The right dimension is normal. The left dimension is what happens when I adjust the positioning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackfish Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 It's strange... Just to let you know, when you explode the dimensions, the untouched one turn into two mtext (the distance between texts are kept as a doubled offset distance; from each side of the line) and the altered one into one mtext That's why the spacing has changed (actually, to the default one with the text style you are using in dims), but why two mtext turn into one?
