Why is overriding a dimension's measured value with typed text dangerous?

  • A.the dimension is moved to another layer
  • B.the geometry is silently scaled to match the typed text
  • C.the figure no longer follows the geometry
  • D.the dimension cannot then be plotted

Answer: C

Correct answer: the figure no longer follows the geometry

An associative dimension reports what it measures, so a change to the geometry changes the figure. Typing a value over it breaks that link permanently and silently: the geometry may be revised afterwards and the dimension will go on reporting the old number, with nothing on the drawing to show that it is wrong.
