Multi-segmented dimensions have an Equality Text label (the default is EQ) that displays directly above each segment of the dimension line. The label displays if the values for all segments in the dimension are equal, or if the values for the first and last segments of the dimension are equal. If neither of these conditions is satisfied, then the dimension segment cannot display the Equality Text label and instead displays the value.
You can customize how dimension segment values display in an equality dimension with 2 or more segments. You can select:
- Value - displays the dimension value for the segment.
- Equality Text - displays the Equality Text Label specified in the type properties. The default value is EQ. To change the default value, see Changing the Default Equality Text Label.
- Equality Formula - displays the Equality Formula specified in the type properties. See Defining an Equality Formula.
To change the equality display:
- Select the dimension.
- On the Properties palette, for Equality Display, select Value, Equality Text, or Equality Formula.
- Click Apply.
