Dimension overrides using match properties

mcaru · 09-24-2007

In 2011 AutoCAD Mechanical, I used to be able to match dimension override properties including the entered text. Not sure how it worked, but the manual entered text would be matched/transferred to the new default dimension. Now using 2012 and this function is not working. This feature is quite handy for the type of work we do. All match property settings are enabled. Any help is appreciated.

Umm this is the NillaCAD forum, not Mechanical. Are you using just the NillaCAD version? Because it isn't a NillaCAD feature. Otherwise, if memory serves, try your AMPOWERDIM settings...

If by some odd chance my nattering was useful -- that's great, glad to help. But if it actually solved your issue, then please mark my solution as accepted

I know they did make some changes to MATCHPROP between 2011 and 2012, however I'm actually surprised it worked like that for you.

Did you know you can change the settings for MATCHPROP? Start the command, pick the source, then look at the command line (type S, for Settings)

Good luck.
