System Variable DIMASSOC

Mnemonic: Dimension Associativity

Disables or enables the associativity when creating dimension entities.

If you turn associative dimensioning:

  • On, all dimensions are unique entities that you can modify and update.
  • Off, all entities of the dimension are created as single lines, arrows, or text, for example. Association to the geometry of drawing entities is not maintained.
