    Posted: 20.Sep.2016 at 21:24
Hey guys,

I know there are ways to edit attributes and the order that you can fill in the blanks. I also know there is a way to do the same with viewport scales. I want my dimensions to do the same thing.

I've attached an image of how my dimensions show up in the drop down menu when I'm selecting one. The 1-2 is listed far down the line with 2-1 but I want it just below the 1-1 dimension style.

Anyway I can edit this? The dimension style manager doesn't give me the option to choose the order. It is already how I like it in there.

Thanks

I wish that were my biggest worry.

I had another question I posted on here about attributes but no one ever answered so I guess this is my second biggest worry. Everything else I've been able to figure out on my own. :)

Delete and recreate the dimension style.  It should assume its correct position in the list.

Another option is to Rename to something like 9-9.  Then rename back to 1-2.

I had to purge and redesign them anyway. So deleting and remaking worked.

Thanks
