DUAL DIMENSION QUESTION

Anonymous — Tue, 27 Oct 2015 17:09:52 GMT

On a drwaing, I'd like a couple dimensions, not all of them, to have dual units. Is this possible?

Thanks

Yes.

Select the dimension and change the Dimension Style.

You can set up additional Styles in your Standards and Styles Manager.

Once you have changed one dimension - you can right click and copy that property to other dimension.

In your drawing, open up styles editor (Manage ribbon tab) and make two dimension styles that you neeed. ~~Also you can place your dimensions and then go back and change how they appear. Not the style but the dimension itself.~~

Edit: Scratch my second workflow.. I forgot you were asking about dual dimensions. That has to come from the style.
