Dimension Label and Text Sizing Issue

Anonymous — Thu, 11 Apr 2019 21:16:30 GMT

My dimension text and arrow size is different between model space and paper space. Originally, I create dimension labels on paper space through the model view and everything has worked. (My scale is set up to 1"-40' in model space and 1"-1' in paper space. I have all my text on an annotative scale.) Though when I am try to create the dimension labels in model space, the text size, the arrow size, and the whole entire dimension label is blown up to a much greater size than what is should be, but the exact same dimension label in paper space is at the correct size and not blown up. It is weird because my multileaders and mtext work just fine going from model space to paper space, just not my dimensions.

I think that it might be pulling from the annotative text style. If you click modify dimension style and click the text tab and change your text style it should fix the problem. or you can go strait to the text style and make sure the annotative box is checked. I believe that the text style overrides the dimension style annotative.

Hi @Anonymous Check to make sure the annotative scale of your paper space viewport and the annotative scale of your model space the same.
