Dude, I am loosing it lol. You are right on post #2. But is there a method to have a dimension style already (pre-populate) with the "(AUTOCAD DOES MATH AND DIVIDEDS THE OVERALL DIM BY 9) SPACES @ 9' = <>"
No worries; you can either setup a new DIMSTYLE that includes the
(AUTOCAD DOES MATH AND DIVIDEDS THE OVERALL DIM BY 9) SPACES @ 9' = prefix, and
' (<-- apostrophe) suffix (see attached), or if you need to retain the same DIMSTYLE, but have the text override customized to suite, simply drag the correctly modified Dimension to a custom Tool Palette (as noted above). Lemon squeezy.
... Just be mindful of the 'Precision' setting.
[Edit] - Just realized that the 'AutoCAD does the math...' wasn't just a string (I copied + Pasted, Haha) - you _actually_ want a Field to divide the length by 9' accordingly. Looking to see if this can be done with Dimensions (and not Civil 3D labels).
