AC12: More Problems with Dimensions

Laura Yanoviak

Since moving to AC12, we've been having problems with Dimensions disappearing from Detail windows -- see this post.

Now we're having problems with Dimension Text moving itself around. Text of Dimension Chains, that are set to the default position, are shifting a number of feet away from that default position (see attached for example) -- this is a TW project, and the shifting usually takes place immediately following a Send and Receive. I've also had reports of Witness Lines moving, while the Dimension Points stay in place.

Anyone else experience this???

Its really strange. We are experiencing this as well, I have sent tech support a file. the problem seems to fix itself if saved back to pln.

A PLN won't work for a team of 5 that need to share the model. I will save as a PLN, reshare, and see if the problem continues.

Laura,

You may also want to try the "Merge blank New & Reset file" into your .PLN file before you re-share it.
