      <description>&lt;P&gt;25 year ACAD veteran - learned on MS Dos. Switched to Mac last year.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Since I switched, this has been a continuous problem. Dimensions will randomly change unit scale; I'll check all the sheets, plot, and then notice that one dimension changed from 12'-0" to 345'-4", for example. Or, it will change to paperspace scale.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;This happens randomly, even though all the dimensions are set to the same style and no overrides. I've attached a screen cap video below. (Looks like the resolution on the video is terrible - here's a still)&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screen Shot 2019-03-12 at 9.50.19 AM.png" style="width: 999px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/612926i19C9D6B62D72F6CE/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Screen Shot 2019-03-12 at 9.50.19 AM.png" alt="Screen Shot 2019-03-12 at 9.50.19 AM.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;This is EXTREMELY problematic. No matter how careful I am, I still wind up with plans on the job site that have a 200' dimension for a bathroom. Not cool.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Reassociating the dimensions would be more work than selecting all of them and reapplying the style. And, there is no reason why the dimension should randomly &lt;EM&gt;disassociate&lt;/EM&gt; from the object. Besides, the dim is still associated with the object - it's the scale that changes.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The problem is that the dimensions are fine when I draw them, and they randomly change scale - and the scale itself is weird and random: -2303.9998 ???? Where does that even come from??&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Do you put dimensions in paper space?&lt;BR /&gt;Can you share one of your drawings with such "outscaled" dimensions?&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Yes I do... but I'd prefer not to share that DWG - there's too much proprietary info in there.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Just know that:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;1) DIMASSOC is set to 2 and I never change it&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;2) my dim style is my own "standard" - I've been using the same style for at least 5 years, and dimensioning in paperspace. This only started when I switched to Mac last year. Never happened on PC.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;3) when I check a dim that has mysteriously changed scale, it is still showing as "standard" - with no overrides.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;4) there are dozens of dims on the same sheet that were done at the same time, in the same way, that do not change&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;5) the associated geometry isn't moving, so that isn't triggering it.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Please see the video that I attached, and the screenshot.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>You can send your drawing (or a part of it with wrong dimensions) to my email:&lt;BR /&gt;mkanaev at yandex.ru&lt;BR /&gt;BTW, what do you mean by "dimension changed scale"? IMHO if it change scale - the elements of dimensions (text height, arrows size, etc.) will be changed.&lt;BR /&gt;Do you mean it changes scale factor - DIMLFAC System Variable?&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Sorry Maxim - the scale factor changes, not the dimension elements....&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You can see it in my screen caps below.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>DIMLFAC for particular dimension cannot be changed by AutoCAD will... &lt;BR /&gt;Have you checked scale factor of a specific (wrong) dimension in the Properties palette? Is he really changed? And what do the measurement results show (ibid., On the Properties palette)?&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Have you checked the points to which you snap "wrong" dimensions? Do they have the same Z coordinate in Model space?&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;None of that is applicable. Please see the screenshot in my first post - the problem is clearly indicated.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I was contacted by Autodesk support, so we'll do a screen share next week. Thanks for your help.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
