Problem Description
When placing Dimensions in a view, the dimension is placed as scaled (either too large or too small). Annotation scale is not turned on or set when placing dimension. See image 1 below showing dimesion (both dimension text and terminators appear scaled, dimension text in this case should be 20 mm)
Steps to Resolve
- Dimension has been placed at full size (1:1), and Annotation scale option turned off but it still appears scaled
- Open Dimension Styles dialog from menu Element > Dimension Styles
- Go to the Advanced tab and expand the options: General > Placement
- Double click on the Annotation Scale option and change this back to 1 (see image 2 and 3)
- Check that the Dimension in the view is scaled correctly
