Dimensioned Box Text option

[MattG]

I like having the box text option on when I dimension stuff. What do I have to do to set this as a default so I don't have to select all my dimensions after I draw them and then choose the box text check box.

There is not way I know of to set this through the interface. If I get a chance later I will try to see if there is a way do set the default in Vectorscript.

In the mean time, here is a script that will turn on the boxed text for every dimension in your drawing.

If you don't know what to do with the check out the post by Robert Anderson in the Vectorscript Share forum:

Procedure BoxIt;

Procedure DoIt(H1:Handle);
Begin
SetObjectVariableBoolean(H1,5,True);
ResetObject(H1);
End;

Begin
ForEachObject(DoIt,((T=DIMENSION)));
End;

Run(BoxIt);

You would think there would be a mode setting option somewhere, but oh well I guess.
