exploding causes dimension to go all over?
(OP)
I have to make revisions to a relatively old ACAD drawing (last tampered with in 1999). The detail needs to go onto a newer standard sheet for the company and some stuff needs to be edited. The sheet looks fine when i open it up. Heres the problem though: the entire file is blocked and the second i explode that block, dimensions and text skew all over the place. Does anyone know what causes this? It's happened to me before and it drives me crazy. Id rather not have to redimension something like this if i can find a way around it.

Try changing to Top View or Front View before inserting the block. Try making UCSFOLLOW 1 and then UCS WORLD then insert the block. Let us know!!

with a particular dim style setting.
Unless you know how it was defined originally
I do not see an out for you.
When you explode the block and try to change
the definition of the dimension I think
it would show its parameter is the dialogue
box. I would definitely redefine the original
block with your general dimension styles included
so that you can enter the block in your other
new drawings without the hassle.
