    Default Dimension style - Palette question for AutoCAD 2005

    Thanks so much for your help before, now i have another question!

    I'm trying to create tool palettes for some of our standards (i.e. text styles, layers etc...). I did all of that fine, but now i'm trying to insert our dimension styles into the palettes and i'm running into some difficulty! What i'm doing is starting a new drawing, and drawing a dimension line, using our standards, then i drag into the tool palette. Then to test it out, i start a brand new drawing, and drag the dim style from the tool palette into the new drawing, and it brings over some of the elements of the dim style, but not all (i.e. different arrowheads). I can't for the life of me figure out why only the dimensions are giving me problems!

    any clues?!

    thanks in advance

    Are the arrow heads, Wblocks that you have created? If they are not part of your new drawing (inserted and erased from the template) then the dimension styles won't find them.
