Quick Reference

You can control dimension line properties including color, lineweight, and spacing.

You can control several aspects of a dimension line. You can

• Specify color and lineweight for visual effect and plotting
• Suppress the dimension line or, if the dimension line is broken by text, one or both halves

  

• Control the spacing between successive dimension lines in baseline dimensions

  

• Control the distance by which the dimension line extends beyond the extension lines for architectural tick (oblique stroke) arrowheads
