Dimensions change after saving and opening same file

Anonymous

Hello,

 

I am using autoCAD for about 10 years. Our company has AutoCAD Architecture 2014 and I am having a major issue with dimensions. I don't have a problem with most of the dimensions but some dimensions on some files. After saving a file with correct dimensions and opening it later some of dimesntions are diferent and the value of Dim scale linear in property panel changes. It is very frustrating because most of dimentions are correct while others are not! If dimensions are wrong on our drawings we a liable! I can not check every single dimension every time I open the file. Please help me solve this issue.

Thank you

Birute

Not enough information, it could be anything in the world from you not snapping to objects to saving your file down to a very old format to who knows what: got a DWG file that presents the problem that you can share? IT can be a partial 'sample' file, ensure the problem exists (and post screenshots of before and after to go with the file).

Hello,

 

Thank you for your reply. I looked through chats on "dim scale linear" and I got my answer. I had to check off "automatically Create Dimscale Override" after typing AECDWGSETUP.

Best!
