Upside down dimensions in sheet files
Upside down dimensions in sheet files
(OP)
When I place a dimension in a reference file then I view it in the sheet file, the dimension comes in upside down. If I drop the dimension, it comes in fine. I would prefer if possible not to drom the dimension. The view in the reference file is rotated. Does anyone know if there is an easy solution or do I have to drop the dimension?
Thanks
Thanks

Under the pull down for ELEMENT>DIMENSION>PLACEMENT ...
Check the box that says "Reference File Units".
The "DIM" should scale to your reference file.
Hope that helps.

If you place a fence around the dimensions and key in: FENCE FREEZE the dimensions will act as though they have been dropped and the dimesions will come in as intended. If later you want to manipulate the dimensions you place a fence around the dimensions and key in: FENCE THAW, this will bring the dimensions back.
Thanks for your help..
