Dimensions scaled off screen?

Can I cause the dimensions text to be at a height that scales off the screen size, so that as I zoom a model the dimensions stay the same height?

Can I do the same in paperspace?

Thanks!

Well, sortof yes and no... For paper space: If the text style used by your dimstyle has a height of zero and your dimscale is set to zero then dimensions in a floating viewport are sized initially to the viewport scale. If you zoom in or out it does not change; however, if you use the UPD option of the DIM command they are resized to the new viewport scale factor. Entering ALL when prompted for a selection set makes it pretty easy unless you use more than one dimension style. DIM UPD ALL will change all of your dimensions to the current style. For model space: Dimscale alone controls but cannot change an already placed dimension's text height and unless the above style requirements are met it cannot change them at all. As with paper space, DIM UPD applies the new dimscale to the already placed dimensions.
