Dimensions look correct, but lose their connection to geometry

[indiancad]

In complex 2D drawings, dimensions can sometimes become disassociated after geometry is moved, copied, or modified. They may still display the correct measurement, but no longer update when the object changes.

AutoCAD's DIMREASSOCIATE command can reconnect dimensions to the intended geometry.

How do you handle disassociated dimensions in large drawings? Do you use DIMREASSOCIATE regularly, or do you prefer to recreate dimensions when their references are lost?

There is a LISP around for that.

 

It doesn't work on DIMDIA/DIMRAD, but can really speed up the work if it's an entire drawing.

 

_dimreassociate, is there a quicker way to do an entire drawing? - AutoCAD 2D Drafting, Object Properties & Interface - AutoCAD Forums

 

I have a few newer versions I have been working on to improve it that I don't think are ready for posting, but maybe I will get back at it soon.
