Text/dimension size defaults

[Rick]

I have just experienced a sudden "resetting" of the size defaults in annotation. This affected text, ref line arrows, dims, tolerances, fixes, leader line arrows, offsets...everything. For instance, the proper default text size is .156. After this sudden change, text was about .0006, with similar changes to other attributes. Any ideas what causes this and how to avoid it?

Rick, We have experienced a similar bug. Our problem was that dimensions became 25.4 times bigger. The source of the problem was saving the environment in SD 7.51 on NT 4.0 SP4. I have corrected the problem by manually editing my Pesd_customize and am_customize files. I hope this points you in the right direction. Good luck

Hi Rick, your default setting is probably in inches. But, you probably change the unit to mm in SolidDesigner and after that you might start Annotation. Annotation loads a table with your default value, but this table doesn't have units, so... Just be careful in which units you are before starting annotation.
