Edit sketch dimensions

 
  1. Edit the sketch that contains the dimension.
  2. Open the Edit Dimension box one of these ways:
    • If the Dimension command is active, click the dimension to change.
    • If the Select command is active, double-click the dimension to change.
  3. Enter a new value or click the arrow and select Measure, Show Dimensions, or one of the listed values.
    Tip: You can also enter or edit an expression that defines a parameter. For example, enter HGHT = 5mm. The expression is parsed to create the parameter HGHT and assign it a value of 5 mm.

    To make the current dimension equal to another dimension, enter a dimension number. Dimensions calculated by equations (where, for example, d5=d2) are displayed with a prefix of "fx."

  4. Click the check mark to accept the new dimension.
Tip: Only normal dimensions can be edited. To convert driven dimension to normal dimensions, select the dimension(s), and then click Sketch tab Format panel Driven Dimension to switch off the Driven dimension option. In an overconstrained sketch, you may have to first convert other dimensions to driven (reference) parameters, or remove some dimensions or constraints, before you can convert driven dimension to normal dimensions.
