ADDING TEXT TO DIMENSIONS IN BLOCKS

[dbraico]

Hi,

I think i have posted a similar post before. 

I am wondering if I can add and remove text to a dimension in a block with using visibility parameters. 

(The block I want this for already has many visibility parameters and as has multiple dimensions that need text.)

Attached is an example where I have text in the dimensions (written as: <> MAX).

Is there a way to add and remove the "MAX" text without breaking the block or using vis parameters?

Thanks

It's possible with vis parameters, just have one dimension with the max and one without.

If you don't want to use vis parameters there isn't really an easy way unless you work with attributes and fields.
Attached is one way without vis parameters and fields but the text will be below/above the line.

@dbraico similar to @Brock_Olly 's version. This one uses a distance parameter to scale the text which is below the line to a very small size

Thank you both for your solutions @h_s_walker and @Brock_Olly.  I think this might be possible with a block properties table but I only operate on LT unfortunately. 

These solutions will work.

Thanks again

I believe block properties tables are part of AutoCAD LT.

Yes block properties tables are a part of LT, but you cannot put user variables in them. unlike full AutoCAD
