SolidWorks dimension handles

Nov 17, 2005 2 Replies

I have lost all my dimension handles for flipping arrow heads, tex and for dragging extension lines to new locations. I recentl installed a new video card so I tried all the drivers from th SolidWorks website with no success. Any ideas??



Best regards

Which version of SolidWorks are you using?

It was a known issue in 2005 SP0. I think it's an issue in 2006 with inserted dimensions (due to be fixed in SP3)-- someone here will hopefully confirm.

Double check in your TOOLS>OPTIONS>Display Selection and make sure that the "DYNAMIC HIGHLIGHT FROM GRAPHICS VIEW" didn't get toggled OFF somewhere along the line.
