Hello Everyone,

I am doing my dimensions in model space - annotative so they are 1/8" on paperspace.
the issue I am having right now is on the viewports - if I use any wireframe the text on
the dimensions are nice and clear, easy to read.

I am trying to use hidden / 3d hidden because the wireframe is just too messy - the hidden visual style looks great, but the text in model space becomes really thick and when plotted unreadable.

anyone know a good workaround? other than doing dims in paperspace. ( mainly because if I shift any geometry I have to redo all the dimensions )

thanks

John.

2d wireframe and hide does not work,
and I have also tried different fonts ( non true type )
Also I am trying to play around with Model documentation and it is not working great either.

Using Sheet sets.

Dimension in paperspace.
you are effectively getting a bitmap image of the dimensions (and everything else).
