Dimension Coloring

[AirRider04]

Two simple questions

Where do I change the color of a dimension or note in a drawing? and can I set it to keep using that color for new dimensions?

Thanks

Another option might be to use LAYERS on your drawings.

Or, open your Line Format toolbar, select what you want to change color, select the color icon on your toolbar. Select the desired color.

Layers is easiet. Create a layer in your drawing template called "Dimensions" "Dims" "Annoatations" etc... and make it the active layer. Set it's color, line weight, etc.. Save out your template.

Now all new drawings will have those dimensions that you add placed on that layer.
