change the typeface when you want to measure a distance (length for example)

Anonymous · ‎06-20-2020

when I use AutoCAD for Mac 2021, I want to change the size ( 1000 meters to 1 meter for example), for that act, there is no problem, nevertheless, when I decide to change the typeface (like the size (2.5 to 30 for example), I can't.

Is it a AutoCAD problem ? (I may, I don't use correctly the software).

Hi Leo,

You can change text height for current Dimension Style in Dimension Style manager -> Text tab:

Note: the height of the text in the Text Style used in dimension style should be set to 0 (zero) in order to get the correct dimension text. So if you need the size of dimension text 30 units, you set it to 30 in the dialog above and have Text Style text height 0.
