Dimensioning with association

[MTB]

Have document settings selected for auto associative but do not see any red squares on dimensions and have tried doing it with and without the auto associative set. Do not understand why it is not working. working with a floor plan using standard objects.

I have the same issue. The program seems to associate dimensions randomly but mostly not at all. This seems to be true whether I'm on a design layer or in a VP. I'm wondering if it's happening because the file(s) were converted from VW12.5.x.

Make sure you are showing the constraints. Go to View-->Show-->Show Hide Constraints. This turns on/off those little red squares.

The View-Show-Show Hide selection worked for some instances. However it still does not work when ever I put in a dimension element. I thought when you selected associative it would automatically associate what ever end point you clicked on to that dimension. It does not seem to work that way. Another need is to select a dimension and have a way to turn it into an associative dimension. Don't see how to do that either.
