DIMENSION OVERRIDE PROBLEM

[Jeff Clark]

I posted this back in October but got no help. It's becoming a nightmare.
Any help would be appreciated.

Has anyone experienced a problem where every time you enter a drawing, the
first time you add any type of dimension to the drawing, "Over Rides"
magically appear in the dimension settings? Setting any dim style to
current eliminates the over rides, and they do not appear
again.........until you open the drawing the next day and - Magic! There it
is again! We have traced the problem to SurvCADD, as machines without it do
Not do this, and it is very consistent.

Thanks for your input,
-JC

One workaround, run the undo command twice after opening the drawing.

Thanks R.K.
Have you found a way to automate that?
I have a lot of users here......
I'm assuming Carlson is aware of this phenomenon? Have they issued an
official statement regarding it? I emailed Lon about it but have not
received a response yet.
What it causing is multiple size arrowheads in a lot of our drawings and
leaders don't seem to automatically update when you realize it and kill the
over rides. It's making me crazy!!!
