Update Dimensions

If the VIEW XYPS is changed, or if the positions of Design elements are changed, the positions of Dimensions on the Sheet do not change automatically. For the necessary repositioning to occur the command:

UPDATE ANNO

must be given. The command affects the current element (and elements below it). Commands of the form:

UPDATE element_identifier ANNO

are also valid, where element_identifier is typically a DRWG, SHEE, VIEW or LAYE. Such a command can, of course, be given from any position in the hierarchy; only annotation relating to the named element is updated.

The ANNO keyword can be omitted if element_identifier defines a piece of annotation only, for example, LDIM.

Note:
Dimension points which reference an invalid Design element (DDNM) still retain their old position after an update. They can be corrected manually or removed by use of the DELETE NULL ANNO command.
