Controls
the associativity of dimension objects and whether dimensions are exploded.
0
|
Creates exploded dimensions. There is no association between
the various elements of the dimension. The lines, arcs, arrowheads,
and text of a dimension are drawn as separate objects.
|
1
|
Creates non-associative dimension objects. The
elements of the dimension are formed into a single object. If one
of the definition points of the dimension moves, the dimension is
updated.
|
2
|
Creates associative dimension objects. The elements
of the dimension are formed into a single object, and one or more
definition points of the dimension are coupled with association
points on geometric objects. If the association point on the geometric
object moves, the dimension location, orientation, and value are
updated.

DIMASSOC is not stored in a dimension style.
Drawings saved in a format previous to AutoCAD
2002 retain the setting of the DIMASSOC system variable. When the
drawing is reopened in AutoCAD 2002 or later, the dimension associativity
setting is restored.
