I use Autocad 2000 and the dimension ticks disappear in the layout mode and will not plot. What do I need to do to get them to appear in the layouts and plot?
The block properties you listed are ok, it sounds as though your dimensions just got placed on a different layer. Try just changing layers your dimensions are on, and in theory, you should be ok. If when you list the exploded tick mark it shows a different layer other than "0", just redefine the block.
Hi Todd,
Why should the dimensions be on layer "0" when I do my dimensioning on another layer? Shouldn't the various dimensions appear on the layer I have chosen for that layout?
Yes you should place your dimensions on a unique layer, what I was refering to was the block definition used to create the dim tick mark. When you explode this block, all of its entities should be on layer "0". This way, the block will take on your dimension layers colors.
