Copying dimension properties from one drawing into another

[Anonymous]

Hello

How can I copy the properties of a dimension line from one drawing into another? Or I have to create the same kind of dimension in the second drawing?

and

if we copy, does a new dimension type automatically created in the second file?

Hi,

use Copy and paste from dwg to another . ( Ctrl+c ) and ( Ctrl+v ) then set the dimension style that you want to current . also make sure that you have different dimension style names.

Note : to copy the DIM styles you can just Ctrl+c to the new drawing then Esc the command without paste.

ADCENTER command does that seemlessly, along with other cool thing from one file to another http://www.ellenfinkelstein.com/acadblog/easily-import-text-dimension-styles-drawings/

HI

If you want to copy DIMSTYLE, 

1. Goto drawing and create dimension by using required dimstyle.

2. Now copy the object (Dimension object) and paste it to destination file.

3. After Paste delete the object from destination file (not dimstyle). 

4. (Now Required Dimstyle copied to required file (Check it in dimstyle).

if you want to copy DIMENSION OBJECT'S PROPERTIES,

Use MA (match properties) COMMAND
