    Default Dimensions in Paperspace, perform a DimRegen causes some dimensions to move

    Hello Everyone,

    I used to do dimensioning in paper space and never had any problems with it. But from yesterday i am facing a problem ie when I make "dimregen" then some of the dimensions goes out of space and shows a big dimension. One thing I noticed that these particular dimensions are between block to block or block to line like that. Can anyone help me please.

    Thanks in advance

    Try to set the dimension variable DIMASSOC is set to 1.

    Are the dimesions correct but just are showing up bigger like the wrong scale?
    Did the scale of the dimstyle get changed?

    If what you mean is that the dimesion style is showing up the correct size but giving you a larger dimension than before the "dimregen", perhaps the blocks are being moved or changing. Are the blocks xrefs?

    "binh" is correct, by setting your dimassoc to 1 it will make it so the dimesions will not update upon dimregen.

    Hi

    Maybe take a look at THIS thread.

    Does using ._DimReAssociate correct the problem ?

    Also maybe take a look at DimLFac.

    Have a good one, Mike
