Reset text position of many dimensions at once.

Reset text position of many dimensions at once.

No aplicable

Hi all.

 
I know how to do this with a dimension. But I need to do it with 100 or so. I would not want to have to go one by one.
Some time ago I was using "Dim" + (Select dimensions) + "Hometext" but now it does not work.
Any suggestions?
Thank you very much

The drawing helped a lot. The problem is that your dim text has been adjusted and is no longer being controlled by the dimension properties. You can see in this video that mirrored text mirrors properly when the text hasn't been moved.

If you look at the properties of your dimension you can see these properties grayed out.

You can see in a new dimension these are not grayed.

The reason that you cant use the command on all of them is that it uses the properties to adjust those values and those properties are no longer valid with the dimensions with moved text. This is also why you can only do it one at at time. The command has to identify the current location of the text and use that information to know where to move the text which is unique to each dimension. It cannot know how far to move the dim text on a group because they are all in different locations. (as @cadffm  mentioned)

 

All that said there is one half way work around that you can use when and only when all the dimension text are on the same X coordinates. You can select all the dims and use the calculator to move all the text. This of course only applies to dims that are on the same X coordinate.

Hi!@cadffm
>>I also wonder why two Lisp files are now appearing without a word

If you have opened the sample file I attached, you would see that I have described the situation I encountered in the file.
>>Now I don't even know what you want and why. laugh.

The topic resurfaced due to a few likes, and I received a response from the person I had asked - who had returned from the "Interstellar" trip. I received the answer from him, which I had tried but failed ago ( but he did)-Thats also reason , I uploaded another thread and received the DTA.Lisp above.
If I have wasted your time, srr about that.
