Dear Rhino community, I am trying to automatically find and solve linear dimension collisions within my drawing. I am able to retrieve the text rectangle from a linear dimension ( more or less ) but I realized the dimension text moves above and below the line depending on the view. [image] [ima…

It might have to do with the “AboveLine” setting : in this case, “above” is defined globally but since my text doesn’t change orientation, I would expect “above” to be define relative to the text orientation … Any chance I can overwrite the setting (scripting on the table) ?

Dimensions text swaps above & below depending on view, can I anchor it?
