Dimensioning Base Views and 3D Views in 2012

Hey Guys,

 

I keep running into a problem with dimensioning my 3D models in different base views. Right now when I dimension, I sometimes get the correct lengths (say 54"), but other times I get completely inaccurate measurements (for example, 15/16"). Is there a way to set it up to create dimensions like it would in 2D for both the base view and 3D views?

 

Thanks!

 

Regards,

Mark

Hi,

 

When you dimension the drawing view from your 3D model, can you try to osnap the points in the drawing view geometry and avoid snapping points in other dimensions or geometry in paper space? if it's still the case, can you try to use select option in the dimension command?

 

If you still have problem, can you please share me your drawing through email zhiyuan.su@autodesk.com?

Thanks.
