DIMFRAC Variable

LT.Seabee · 2004-07-17, 06:58 AM

Is there another variable that affects the DIMFRAC variable? I have a new routine that sets it to 2 (non-stacked) and yet when I run the routine, it puts it at "0" (stacked)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Are you using a Desktop version of AutoCAD? If so, it may automatically change it each time you open a drawing.

I'm using ADT 3.3, but I'm not opening new drawings, I'm opening existing ones and updating the dimstyle.

The only thing I know about DIMFRAC is that DIMLUNIT 1, 2, 3 and 6 affects the display of fractions but it doesn't change the value of DIMFRAC. Besides, I'm sure you'd notice if the dim units changed.
I'd guess it's your routine that messes with the values.
