Lighthouse Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 How do I control the size of temporary dimensions? I know I can toggle them on and off, but I don't see where I can control the size. When I'm working on a CAD detail, the temporary dimension appear very large (particularly the hash marks) and obscure what I'm working on. I would think they would match the size of the dimension default, but they don't. See the 7/16" temp dimension in the attached pdf. The hash marks are larger than on the 5" dimension. thanks! temp dimension.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renerabbitt Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 @Lighthouse Temp Dimensions follow your Active Dimension Defaults. Consider making a new dimension default with 1/4" arrows 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 right, that's what I did, but as I tried to show in the image, the size of the hashmarks in the 5" dimension line (which is using the arrow dimension default) is smaller than the temp dimension arrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 My best guess is that your active dimension default does not match the default that is set for the manual dimension line that was drawn. Select the manual dimension line. Open it for specification. What dimension default is it using? Now open the Default Settings dialog. Go to dimensions. What is your currently active dimension default? If they are not the same, than that is why they look different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
