View and layout dimension text showing differently

Anonymous — Fri, 19 May 2023 13:45:58 GMT

Hi guys

So as the title suggests, I am having some trouble with dimension text.
I want my text to be on the left of the dimension line, as they are in the view, but they for some reason show the other way around in the layout. I will attach a screenshot so you get a better idea.

I would check to make sure that the Drawing placed on the Layout is not rotated. It may be at the moment, maybe by only a fraction of a degree, almost indiscernible, which causes those vertical dimension lines to be not exactly vertical but lean just a bit to the right, and the dimension text flips to the other side.
You could also try to place the View again on the Layout.

The floor plan is rotated by 270°, so the dimension will have moved to make them readable.
Does it have the same rotation when you place the drawing of the view on the layout?
