Dimensions blowing up

Anonymous — Fri, 20 Jan 2017 09:56:09 GMT

Good Morning, When I select a dimensioned object in 2017 the dimensions spreads all over the drawing, never had this happen before.

It's becoming a pain in the nether regions so any help appreciated.

Hi,

if the dimension is too big then it's reason is either the dimension scale or the annotation scale.

To know which is your problem please upload the drawing (plus a screenshot of your screen just to make sure we see the same situation as you have on your display).

Hi, this is happening in model space, where the annotation scale is1:1, the layout scale is 1:75

Hi,

This answers only 10% of the settings which might influence your drawing.

It's only guessing without the drawing, please show us the drawing + a screenshot. Otherwise guessing (with response like that here) might need days over days to know what is your exact situation and so beeing able to make a valid suggestion.

My guess is selectionannodisplay was changed to 0 or xfadectl was dimmed
