samgbickel Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hello. I had to update the tick marks on my dimensions style. After updating, existing dimension items are not updated to reflect the changes. Do I have to go through and individually change 100's of dimensions in my drawing? Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Try closing the file and reopening first. If that does not work, try a Custom Modification with a Type is Dimension and select the Dim style you want to use. Possibly change it to something else and then back in two steps if just reselecting the style does not work. 1 Quote Link to comment
samgbickel Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 It was all fixed upon reopening the file. Thanks Pat! I'm glad that worked because my OIP seems to default to "Multiple Items" selected (without the dimension options) when I have multiple or the "wrong" dimensions selected. Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Glad it worked. Custom Modification is completely separate from multiple items selected in the OIP. It is a menu command in the Tools menu in most of the workspaces. It lets's you specify items by Criteria (Layer, class, color, area, perimeter, etc.) and then modify the attributes and settings of the objects working on all the objects at the same time. It takes a little playing to get used to but can be very helpful in situations like this. We are talking about this at the LA VWUG Zoom on Saturday. Quote Link to comment
