DIMSTYLE update

[antistar]

I have the variable DIMTXSTY set like this:

 

(setvar "DIMTXSTY" "MYNAMESTYLE")

 

But this only affects the new dimensions.

How do I update this variable to the existing dimensions in the drawing?

 

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Command: dim

Dim: up

Select objects: all
3217 found
12 were not in current space.

 

Are you trying to do this in code?

(vla-put-textstyle (vlax-ename->vla-object ) (getvar 'DIMTXSTY))

Did you replace with your entity?

Which entity name to encompass all the DIMSTYLES?

You have to create a selection set of the desired dimensions and step through them one by one.
