CAD2010 3D dimensioning issues

2010-03-30View Original

Thread Content

I sincerely seek advice from my brothers: I am currently using AutoCAD 2010 for 3D drawing, and then adding 3D dimensions. However, the dimension lines are always quite far away from the points where the dimensions are assigned; usually, those points are located right at the edges of the drawing. Could anyone tell me how to solve this problem?

I haven’t worked with 3D models before, but I encountered this problem when drawing axonometric drawings as well. When the weights are the same, the issue arises because the wrong viewing angle is chosen for the annotations; for example, if an annotation is meant to be placed on the left view, choosing to place it on the front view results in the annotation being far away from its target. The problem is resolved by changing the viewing angle used for the annotation. I’m not sure if the same thing happens in 3D as well

One principle is to set the UCS on the plane where the dimension is to be marked, that is, the XY axes of the UCS are within the plane of the dimension to be indicated.

I had forgotten this after not drawing axonometric diagrams for a long time; thanks to the brother who posted above for the reminder. Hehe
