    Default Dimension Grimlin

    I dimension my drawings in paperspace. I have a situation where the scale facter of the dimStyle I'm using is set to 48 scale. My dimensions want to revert or change to a different scale factor with their dimstyle changing. a 3'-0" dimension will all of the sudden read as 114'-0". It's like there's a mischievous little grimlin messing with me. If I select the dim and click the dimstyle control on my tool bar it'll correct the problem, but only temporarily. If I stretch or move the dim it reverts or changes again or even just randomly without any known provocation.

    Has this Grimlin been tormenting anyone else?

    the grimlin sounds like his name is DIMASSOC set to 2, if that is his name, change it to 1
