To follow the scale of the coasts

Hello, is there a way in a Solidworks MEP to define the dimension font according to the scale?

Let me explain, I often change the scale of my shots but the dimensions always remain the same size, I am forced to go to the options of the document to adapt them each time.

How do I set a dimension font based on the scale of the view?

Thanks in advance,

Cdt

Hello

 

To my knowledge, it's not possible without macro!

 

Edit: there is an improvement request from SolidWorks under the number:

 SPR #:

Product:
 
Area:
 
 
 
 
SolidWorks
 
DRW (Edit/Revise/Locate) dimension
 
 
    
 
Description:
 
 
Dimension to increase proportional to drawing view.

To get around the problem, what you can do is to create several DRESSING STANDARDS.

In each of the standards you change your character height for annotations, dimensions,.....

So quite quicklyclick "Load from an external file", you should be able to switch from one standard to another.

 

Note: all your skin standards must be in the same directory and be declared in  "System Options" then "File Location" then "Skin Standards"

I've never used the standards of dressing, it's going to serve me well^^

Thank you @Flegendre!
