Hi,
I'm new to Autocad (working on version 2007).
I dont know what I did, but since this morning all the dimensions I set (using linear like I always do) are displayed with a very small text and horizontal.
(at the beginning I couldn't see the text so I thought it had disapeared!)
Before it used to be big enough to be read and vertical (for vertical dimensions)...
Is it possible to set a default size ?? and get what I had before ?
Thanks !!
Cyril

Open your Dimension Style Manager, by typing DIMSTYLE at the command line, and check your settings.
Also check the Text Style you're using in your Dimstyle and make sure the height value is set to 0. If it is set to anything other than 0 it will override the setting in your Dimstyle.
