Hello,
There is a frequent problem when importing AutoCAD drawings: Dimension sizes (text, dimensions & arrows) can be much bigger (or much smaller) then the actual drawing scale.
This is way current when the drawing scales are different among designers, like when both uses different scale units (meter X inch), or when a drawing was created in the 'meter' unit and must be converted into the 'millimeter' scale type.
In all the cases several changes on dimensions are required.
The Dimension 'Styles' received very interesting improvements on recent DataCAD releases and could be enhanced a little more:
Would be possible to add an option in the menu "Dimension/Changes": "To Style" ?
This would save a lot of mistakes and improve to making very quick the dimension edition. Today you must adjust the individual dim styles you want to change, at text, dim & arrow style sets.
It is not very handy to make it now.
Thanks,
Miguel
