View Full Version : Dimenstion formatting - superfix & subfix

It appears that the text justification of dimensions is set to the center of the dimension. This makes for funny looking text blocks.

for instance:
9X C.03 x 45° AROUND PROFILE
WASH OUT AS SHOWN IN DETAIL 1

What I would like to see is something more like:
9X C.03 x 45° AROUND PROFILE
WASH OUT AS HOWN IN DETAIL 1

Is there a way to set the dimension for right (or left) justifiction? I find the current superfixes and subfixes to ugly that I rarely use them despite having frequent opportunity to use them.

Another irritation I have w/ superfixes and subfixes is that I would rather see the dimension leader attached to the top-most line, rather than the middle of the text block.

I came across the same thing. Have you found a way around it? In the subfix, you can add spaces in front of the text. But, in superfix, adding spaces can line up the text, but it moves the refline that many spaces away from the text.

I have version 12.01D.
