Table Of Contents
New, Modify, and Override Dimension Style Dialog
Boxes
Set properties for dimension styles.
Summary
When you choose Continue in the Create New Dimension Style dialog box,
the New Dimension Style dialog box is displayed. You define the properties
for the new style in this dialog box. The dialog box initially displays the
properties of the dimension style that you selected to start the new style in
the Create New Dimension Style dialog box.
Choosing either Modify or Override in the Dimension Style Manager displays
the Modify Dimension Style or the Override Dimension Style dialog box. The
content of these dialog boxes is identical to the New Dimension Style dialog
box, although you are modifying or overriding an existing dimension style
rather than creating a new one.
The sample image on each tab displays the effects of each option.
