AEC Dimension Styles
The AEC dimension style defines objects to dimension in the AEC dimension,
and the display of the AEC dimension.
You can create and edit AEC dimension styles, import and export AEC
dimension styles between drawings, and purge AEC dimension styles that are
not in use. When you create, purge, import, export, or edit styles, you access
the Style Manager. The Style Manager provides a central location in AutoCAD
Architecture where you can work with styles from multiple drawings and
templates. For more information about using the Style Manager, see Style
Manager Overview on page 856.
You can create an AEC dimension tool from any AEC dimension style. You
can drag the style from the Style Manager onto a tool palette. You can then
specify default settings for any AEC dimensions created from the tool. For
more information, see Creating an AEC Dimension Tool on page 3383.
