Dimension Properties

e14 Contributor

I have figured out how to set a default Dimension Line Width (dline) and

Unit (dunit) by creating and entry in the eagle.scr file:

 

change dline

change dunit

 

and it is working well.

 

I'm trying to figure out how to change the default Dimension size.  This is

the Size window in the properties box that changes the text size for the

dimension line.

 

Also what is the Ratio value used for?

 

Thanks,

Jim

  • Thank you Waren for the details on Ratio.  I was able to find the answer on

    the dimension text size in case any one else is interested.

     

    CHANGE SIZE is all thats required in the eagle.scr file.

    Hi

     

    Ratio is the thickness of the type as a percentage of type height but

    only applies when the font type is Vector.
