Sets terminator and symbol options for dimensions. The Terminator and Symbol tab is available in the Dimension Style dialog box and in the Dimension Properties dialog box.
Terminator
Sets options for terminators.
Display
Controls the display of terminators on dimensions. Options are None, Origin, Measurement, or Both.
Measure type
Sets the end terminator type for linear dimensions.
Measure size
Sets the size of the end terminator. The value is a ratio of the text size.
Note:
Setting the Measure Size for the end terminator also sets the Origin Size for the start terminator to the same value. To use a different start terminator size, change the Origin Size after changing the Measure Size.
Origin type
Sets the start terminator type for the origin of a linear dimension.
Origin size
Sets the size of the start terminator. The value is a ratio of the text size.
Note:
Setting the Measure Size for the end terminator also sets the Origin Size for the start terminator to the same value. To use a different start terminator size, change the Origin Size after changing the Measure Size.
Free-space type
Sets the terminator type for an annotation whose terminator is placed in free space.
Datum frame terminator type
Sets the terminator type for datum frames.

No symbol is displayed on the terminator line. |
Inside limit
Sets the inside limit for the terminator. The value is a ratio of the dimension text size. This setting controls when the terminators are displayed on the outside of the projection lines.
Symbol
Sets options for symbols in dimensions.
Placement
Sets the placement position for the symbol on diameter and radial dimensions and linear dimensions for an arc. You can place the symbol before or after the dimension. You can also hide the symbol.
Not to scale
Displays an underline, zigzag, or no indicator on driven dimensions with overridden values. You can use the zigzag option only on linear dimensions. You can override a driven dimension value by typing a new value in the Edit Value box on a dimension command bar.
Suppress diameter
Suppresses the diameter symbol on diameter dimensions.
All Around Symbol
|
Size |
Specifies the diameter of the all around symbol as a multiplier of the text size. The default is 1.0. |
