To avoid the dimensions to appear rotated ?

[archkre]

Is there any variable to avoid the dimensions to appear rotated when I rotate the ucs in a PS viewport?

Thanxx

i highly doubt it unless you do it with a lisp routine

Yes I know, but the plans were already dimensioned in model space.

Maybe there is any variable to make the dim text rotate with the rest of the dwg!

i'm having a little trouble understanding the problem, but in the dimension style manager (D) under the 'text' tab, you can change the text placement to always be horizontal (instead of aligned with the dimension)

 

i think this might solve your problem, but it would graphically look bad.

if you go into ps...type ucs, new, Z, and rotate the ucs 45 degrees, you'll see that all the dimensions are rotated 45...regardless of settings in the dimstyle editor
