Return a (not to scale) Dimension to Its Actual Value

When you override the value of a driven dimension by editing its dimensional value, the dimension is not-to-scale. For example, if you override the dimensional value that is 15 millimeters (A) to be 30 millimeters, the actual size of the line that you see would still be 15 millimeters (B).

Step 1.

Select a driven dimension.

Note:

A driven dimension is indicated by a color for driven dimensions that you can set with the Style command on the Format menu. You can also set the color by selecting a dimension and clicking the Properties command on the Edit menu.

Step 2.

On the command bar, delete the dimensional value from the Value box.

Note:

Another way to return a dimension to its actual value is to select a dimension and use the Not to Scale command on the shortcut menu.
