FILL ISSUE WITH DIMENSION HEADS

Dear All,

 

I have a problem with the dimension's arrow heads "architectural tick". It normally shows as filled but in the drawings it shows without fill (something like a wireframe). I have checked commands like fill, fillmode and display in the option. Could you please tell me what could be the reason.

 

Thanks

Riznas

SHADEMODE set to 2D? It should be.
Rotated UCS?
Problem limited to one file?

Hi,

 

Thanks for your reply,

Shademode, ucs,... are all fine. When i copy the same dimensions to other files it show the same problem. Any other fix?

Thanks

Your UCS is rotated and PLAN is not aligned with it. Setting UCS and PLAN to WORLD seemed to fix the problem for all newly drawn dimensions.

Deifne ALL FINE in youre earlier response?

LIST command, select the 1400 dimension: one of the dimension's extension points is at Z height minus 109.7

The 4300 dimension has all of it's Z height settings at zero.

Looks like to snapped to an object far below the rest of your drawing for that one dimension (ermember, AutoCAD is a 3D program). You will need to recreate the odd singl 1400 dimension, set OSNAPZ to Zero may help if your snapped object must remain at that Z-minus location.

Since that's all your posted file contains I could not find how best to provide you with more details.

Thanks a lot my friend.

It was a great help. Is there any way to convert the existing dimension to a proper one or we'll have to do new dimensioning again?

 

Thanks & Regards

Redraw from scratch was my observation in your file.
