Hello,

I could see the Flip Dimension Display when I use Feature dimension option.
Can we control this display to normal way?

Thanks,
Mathi K
 
Not exactly sure what you mean by the "Flip Dimension Display". However, since these are only temporarily displayed dimensions (they are removed for example if you do something as simple as a Display Refresh) there are no provisions to change how they are displayed. Now IF you convert them to PMI, then they become 'permanent' and you can edit their appearance and format like any other 'dimension' using the options found in the Style dialog.

What characteristic exactly are you attempting to edit? You mention 'flip'. What are you referring to?

Taking a wild guess, go to...

Preferences -> PMI -> PMI -> Display

...and in the 'Display' section of the dialog check the status of the 'Update Reading Direction after View Rotate' option. If it's NOT toggled ON, do so, and hit OK. Now check your Dimensions.

Thanks John.
It works.[Preferences -> PMI -> PMI -> Display]
