I have ProgeCad 9.0.22.5, working in Vista 64 bit, and am dimensioning in paper space.

The problem is that paper space dimensioning starts multiplying the dimension by the amount of the view port zoom:

The first time I create a dim it works fine, maybe 2 or 3 times, then the dims start to multiply by the viewport zoom (e.g. a 5' dimension gets multiplied by 96 if the paperspace is at 1/8"=1'-0" and reads as 480').

In order to reset it to work correctly, I have to click on the "current dimension style" toolbar. See image for example

According to the Progesoft Trial Support Forum this was supposedly fixed in release 2009.

What is going on?

Hello schloeder,


We haven't been able to reproduce your problem in XP. If you need an email address to send an example drawing to you could use:

Did you have any success with the suggestions from the other members in your other discussion? Just curious.
