Hi, I've made yet another update to an old lisp routine of mine, this time a dimstyle manager. The purpose of this utility is to simplify and standardize the process of creating dimension styles. All settings are configureable through the dialog or template files.It is a utility I use all the time, so I'm pretty sure it can be useful for others.It is compatible with both Bricscad (v 8.2.8) and Autocad. Feedback on bugs and other problems appreciated. http://www.mediafire.com/?srs6ppy1gbz

    A last-minute bug made the routine only set a handful of dimension variables. By design, you're supposed to be able to tweak values of all dimension variables in the templates, as a one-off configuration for all future dimension styles.Made a couple of changes to the default templates as well:Corrected DIMASZ value (arrow size)Set DIMTSZ to 0.0 (creates closed filled arrow instead of tick mark)Set DIMZIN to 8 for metric templates (remove trailing zeros)If you want tick marks instead of arrows for dimensions, set DIMTSZ to 0.9 (mm) 0.09 (cm) 0.0009 (m) or 0.03125 (in)Fixed version:http://www.mediafire.com/?zm9qmkm0y1m
