Arc Dimension Edit All
Tool summary :
- Automatically opens a window for multi-editing all arc dimensions that are on shown comment layers in your current drawing.
- Shown comment layers are visible comment layers (comment layers marked " Show "). Since Arc Dimension Edit All works only on visible layers, you can -- prior to activating this tool -- turn off particular layers to exclude arc dimensions that are on those layers from being edited.
- Since Arc Dimension Edit All operates exclusively on shown comment layers, the version of the Edit Arc Dimension window that opens using this tool is fully editable.
- Arc Dimension Edit All can help you to ensure that arc dimensions are drawn consistently. When the Edit Arc Dimension window opens, you can easily identify mixed entries because they are grayed out . If you then, for example, change the " Font ," all arc dimensions on shown comment layers will be assigned that same font.
- The selection of objects that is made prior to using Arc Dimension Edit All does not affect the operation of the tool, nor does the tool affect the selection. For example, if you have clouds selected before you activate the tool, the clouds remain selected after Arc Dimension Edit All is done.
- To invoke Arc Dimension Edit All and edit all arc dimensions that are on visible comment layers:
Method 1 : Click the Arc Dimension Edit All icon. The icon can be taken from the group named ' Objects -- Arc Dimensions ' and placed on a toolbar (classic) or the ribbon (lightning).
