    Default Annotative Dimensions??

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    how do i make it so when i select and annotative dimension, how do i make it so that i do not see it in several diffrent sizes.. I am new to annotative dimensioning, i was under the impression that when you un check the "thunder bolt annotative logo" that i highlighted, that would prevent this from happening.

    Thanks im advand for any help.

    The "thunder bolt" controls whether Annotative objects will be displayed, even if they don't have the current scale.
    rkent posted the variable that controls whether all the scales are displayed when the object is selected.
