Does anyone know if Autodesk Field Survey supports Dimension Styles.. I've
been using the "offset dimension" command, but would like to modify it. Any
help with this would be greatly apperciated.

DIMSTYLE is read-only.
Annotate>Survey Text Defaults sets the defaults for the Offset Dimensions.
Under Dimension Line Type, you can determine the line style to use for
dimensions.

Of course it supports dimension styles, meaning it uses them. But there is no command to create, delete, or edit dimension styles.
You could create an empty drawing using full-blown AutoCAD that contains all the dimension styles that you want, then use this as a prototype or insert it into any existing drawing. I'm not sure there is any way to *set* a dimstyle current though. This probably won't help much anyway since the dimensioning commands in AFS set certain dimension variables at run-time, essentially hard-coding the output.
