ALTERNATE DIMENSIONS MULTIPLYING THEMSELVES

OK Folks help me on this one. Autocad plant 2019 is installed. We are using alternate dimensions, (imperial on top metric on bottom) upon placement they display properly, We can go to plot a drawing and some of the dimensions will multiply themselves on the bottom number by 25.4 feet.  in otherwords, 2'-0" on the bottom will show up as [50'-9 5/8"] when plotted.

the funny thing is it displays properly when the dimensions are place originally and then after plotting, it plots with the wrong information. it always shows up on the plotted file, when you go back into the drawing, somehow it changed itself. No consistancey with it happening either, its random. I would not believe it if i had not seen it with my own eyes, so for your viewing amusement I have attached a file. notice on the attachment, the vertical dimension on the right side of the page, 20'-0" [6096] e-e stayed true, the rest of the horizontal dimensions along the bottom are changed..very frustrating. does anyone have a solution?

thanks.

Terry

Interesting - your posts are also multiplying themselves 😉

 

Try changing your DIMASSOC variable to 1.

thanks for the reply, if it is a duplicate question, my apologies. some times things get lost in the shuffle.

 

again, thanks
