Dimension Baking Problems

I am learning/experimenting with Grasshopper Dimensioning. The aligned dimensions perform fine in GH, but when I bake the model and cut/paste it into another drawing, the dimensions do not come over.

Can anyone suggest something to try to make the dims bake?

(or other reason about what’s going on here?)

Best regards,

Hi blcavender,

Not seeing this in a quick test.

Please run SystemInfo in the Rhino command line and post the results.

A small example file would be helpful as well. Thanks.

I found a work around in that I can bake each Dimension plus the final geometry separately … which creates the end product of a dimensioned geometry.

Each AlignedDim object must be baked individually. Just baking the SolidDifference alone doesn’t trigger the baking of everything.

I’m wondering if there is a way to link all the objects somehow to “BakeAll”?

Tnx!
