If you change a setting in a dimension style, all dimensions in the drawing that use the style update automatically. You can create dimension substyles that use specified settings for different types of dimensions. You can override a dimension style with dimension settings that deviate from the current dimension style. It's always good to keep to your dimension styles as much as possible, but sometimes a situation requires an exception. You can create an.

You don't need to delete the one with the override(s). Just double-click on the one you want to use, or right-click on it and pick 'Set current,' and it will become the current Style. The one with override(s) will go away in the process of setting another one current whether its own 'parent' Style or a different one.The one with override(s) is there because you changed some Dimension System Variable setting(s) while the 'parent' Style that it's a 'child' of was current. You can avoid that, if you want, by drawing all Dimensions using only 'parent' Styles, and never changing any of those System Variables. If you want something different about a specific Dimension, use DIMOVERRIDE to change it. That will change individual Dimensions without being considered an override on the Dimension Style definition, so you won't see those Styles with overrides in the dialog box. Wrote. when type 'aecdwgsetup' in command, it show up unknown command.
It's that other way to permanently remove style override?That's probably a specialty command in the old AEC overlay program I think the 'aec' part stands for Architecture/Engineering/Construction. In 'vanilla' AutoCAD, no commands defined specially in the overlay programs will be present.See the beginning of Message 2 to clear overrides. Or do you mean something else by 'permanently remove style override?' Do you want to remove it from Dimension objects already drawn?
You can use DIMOVERRIDE and give them the Style's native properties. If you mean you want to make a certain override impossible to use, I don't know of a way to do that.
Has anyone ever tried/found a way to completely disable AutoCAD's ability to apply overrides of any kind to dimension styles? ![]() Comments are closed.
