Hi All,
Does anybody know of a command that will update text in a drawing automatically??? For example, with dimensions, if you want to change all of your dimensions in a drawing to another dim style, you first change your dimension style to what you want, then you type dim-space bar, up space bar, then you select the whole drawing and hit enter. This will update all the dimensions to the selected dim style.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated,
Thanks,
nameci

I know you can select all Dimensions in your drawing. You can even select one dimension Right Click your mouse then Select similar. Then just use your proerties window and change the style there. as long as the style you want is loaded in the drawing.
