Error message when I try to create dimensions

When I tried to create a dimension, I get this error message. Don't understand how it's related to creating dimensions.

 

"The drawing cannot be migrated.

 

The drawing you selected does not contain any standards. Select another drawing with a standard to migrate."

 

Please advise.

I can't snip & paste here. But that's the error message I get the moment I tried to click the icon to create dimension.

What's happend, if you put this in the command line:

_ampowedim

_amautodim

 

Can you create a dimension?

"_ampowedim" gave me the same error message.

"_amautodim" gave me a dialog box  for multiple dimensioning, for parallel/ordinate/shaft & symmetric dimension

OK, it's an interesting behavior. The good news is that something works.

 

Sometimes it helps to return AutoCAD MEchanical to the factory settings.

 

Can you tell me, what's happend, before that command stopped working?

 

A slightly similar problem was solved by the repair / reinstallation

Please check in CUI this - is the the function POWER-DIMENSION registered? (here in German, but the same value):

Powedimension.PNG

I opened my program. It prompted me that my license expired. Got IT to help. Then problem starts. Today everything is working fine.🤔

Tried to callout our own titleblock with respective scale but it doesn't work. Already loaded the .lsp script 😥

Hi @elaine.chan,

 

to prevent further errors, it is better to reinstall AutoCAD completely
