Hi all, does anyone konow how to put a double arrow head on a linear dimension? I would really like it to be a part of the assosiative dimension rather than a leader or free arrow head floating in space. We are using version 2000i.

Thanks in advance.

I use either the dimension or the leader setting 'dimaso' to off first and then copy the second one.
 
I have never done it, but I think that you can make User arrowheads. When defining your dimstyle, on the arrowhead type pulldown list, you can pick "user" and browse for a user block to use as a arrowhead.
Good luck.
 
Hi Hayden,

borgunit is right. Pay attention that the insertpoint of Your new block(s) is the point of the measurement. If the dims are not mirrorimage, You have to define both...
