I'm trying to create various preset dimension styles to add to our drawing templates.
But I've come across an oddity that sure feels like a bug.
I'll preface this to say I cannot figure out a way for the diameter symbol to automatically appear in both sketch and drawing linear dimensions. I can get the correct doubled dimension when selecting a centerline and a sketch line for a revolve (cylindrical parts being a huge part of our business), but I have to manually add the diameter symbol
Anyway, because of that lack of automatic diameter recognition in dimensions, I was setting up some dimension styles with the diameter symbol to apply where needed. My first try used the native diameter symbol
But if I then changed to a different style with a dimension selected, it would change to the new style BUT KEEP THE
So, I've switched to using ALT+0216 for Ø instead and it seems to behave when changing dimensions styles, though I suspect it will be visually different than the native diameter symbol.
I suppose it is 'feature not bug', but in this use case, it isn't really helping.
