Broken Dimension style

I have recurring weird issue with dimension styles. I wonder if anybody ever had the same problem?

Some of my dimension styles are "broken": If you want to assign it to a view it won't stick no matter how hard you try.

Happens in every version to my knowledge, even in 30.

I recreated the affected dimension styles, but it keeps happening, so I'm really wondering what is going on here.

Strange glitch.

For me, it works in Archicad 29 without a problem.

So, what I see is that after you modified the Dimension Settings, then you try to redefine the settings of the View with the current settings (00:11 in the video), and instead of the View picking up the current settings ("2|..."), the Dimension Setting in the Option Bar at the bottom changes to the Dim setting stored in the View ("3|...").

What happens if you go to the View Settings Dialog, and instead of changing the Dimension field as you do in the video at 00:16, you click the Get Current Windows's Settings button at the top? Does the setting stick then?
