The dimension scale override is on by default, and it overrides the active dimension scale style. With the override on, dimensions added to the drawing are scaled based on the current drawing scale.
Note: Any time you close the Drawing Setup dialog box by selecting OK or Apply, an override is applied if Automatically Create Dimscale Override is selected, regardless of the tab that was originally opened.
AEC dimensions added with tools are not affected by the dimension scale override because an AEC dimension style depends on which display representation is active.
- Click
Utilities Drawing Setup. - Click the Scale tab.
- Clear Automatically Create Dimscale Override.
When you clear this setting, you can adjust the dimension scale independently of the drawing scale.
- Select Save As Default if you want subsequent drawings to use these settings, or clear Save As Default to save your settings in the current drawing only.
