View Full Version : 2012 snapping dimensions to datums (grids/levels)

Came across a little issue.

From what I can remember when dimensioning a view you could move move each dimension into a position relative to datums and/or other parallel dimensions and they would auto snap.

So that way instead of having to select and move, you could simply extend them all with the datums.

For some reason I seem to be unable to get the dimensions to host themselves to grids and levels. I can get them to auto-snap with each other with the "dimension line snap distance" set to 1/2".

I know it involves the 3d extents of the datum, but it sometimes works, and sometimes doesnt.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks.
