How to modify Dim variables ( not override ) thro Autolisp .pls a simple code

[irneb]

Easiest would be to use setvar to change the Dim* vars. Then use a command call to DimStyle with a Save option - to overwrite the current DimStyle with the new variables. That last step changes the overrides into the standard settings for the dimstyle.

More difficult method would be to entmod the dimstyle's object in the DimStyle table.

Alternatively, you can modify the various Dimension System Variables, then use the CopyFrom method with the Source Object parameter as the Active Document Object to copy the current settings to a supplied DimStyle Object.
