Hello Everybody,

 

I have attached a part file and drawing of the same.

The 1'-8" value is above the dim line can I get it below the

dim line as if mirrored about the  dimension line.

 

Please find the images attached for futher clarity

 

Is there any simple option which I am missing

 

Thanks

            I’ve looked at the file and the dimension styles and the text (unlike just text) can’t be rotated. I’ve created a style of text that is rotated 180 degrees and as text goes it works fine. If I set the text as the text that the dimension style should use it rotates it back to 0 degrees. If you edit the text in the dimension style you will see the text option of rotation is grayed out.

Thanks for the reply

I tried doing what you tried to do.

Its not working for me.

 

Please correct me if I am wrong

The intent of your post says that we can't achieve that kinda

rotation in the text, correct?

 

Thanks again
