When I select annotative for my dimensions (in Acad Mech.) it does not "keep". I found I can set them as annotative thru the old dimstyle box, but the new edit dimension box does not keep the annotative value. Is this by design?
By the way, I want annotative because I am creating dims in model space, viewports in Paper. This is the correct use for annotative, correct?
Hi,
Please refer to the post in the link below. Hope it helps.
In short, power dimensions in AutoCAD Mechanical don't honor annotative setting while autocad dimensions createdy by DIMLINEAR etc still behave the same as they are in AutoCAD. So you can still choose to use autocad dimensions leveraging annotative feature or use power dimension and rely on its intelligence.
Let me know if you have further doubts.
