dear all,
my problem is this:
in the drawing the texts of rotated dimensions are on the left side of
the dimension line. When I copy and paste this drawing into another
one the texts of the rotated dimensions look mirrored (are on the
right side of the dimension line). The UCS of the two drawing are the
same and the characteristics of the dimensions too. What's happen?
What must I do?
Thank's
Pj

P.C.

When you save a drawing you also save the variables that has been
changed, then copying and pasting parts of a drawing where some var's
been changed into a new drawing also mean that it is the setup of the
new drawing that will decide car's like Mirrtext case that has been
changed. I suggest you go thru the sysvars for both drawings and check
the differences.

P.C.

Sorrt I offcaurse mean that when pasting something into a drawing from
another, it don't change the drawings sysvars, then if the copied item
is made with particular var's changed for that drawing, then things
like what you describe will happen. There are a number of sysvars
deciding various dimensioning details so that could be the problem.

thank's You very much for your answer.
but..
I really don't know what happen. I can't find the variables with
different value!
I'm thinking about a different value of an angle ..
For read the text of dimension in the second drawing i must to rotate
it of 180 degrees!
Which variables can do that?
