Asssociativity????

What is the concept and differences between associative and non associative hatch, dimension etc?

associative makes them dependant on some geometry, non associated keeps them the size you made them.

check it out by dimensioning something with both associative & non-associated dimensions then stretch the object. One dimension should change, the other shouldn't.

thanks dbroada

how can i make my dimension associative and non associative???

set the variable "Dimaso" to on or off

Just curious as to why you would not want your dimensions to be associative all the time.

Say if you manipulate one of the ends of a dimensions and stretch or squeeze it. Note the dim changes.

If you unassociate, then that dim will not update.

This is a bare bones example of how associate works.

As metnioned earlier, changing certain parameters will result in a change in something using associate.

Change perimeter of geometry hatch is using = hatch changing to new boundary of geometry.

i just wanted to know Remark.. thanks to all
