About Bob
Expertise
I am good at getting Architects and Interior Designers who are intimidated by Autocad, ADT, etc. to feel comfortable, get things done.
PLEASE GIVE ME:
1- some background on you and your skills, and what field you are working in, so I can reply at your level and dont give architecture answers to an engineer
2- the reason you want to do what you are asking, so I will know I am helping you to get to a goal (maybe I have a better way to suggest)
3- the release of AutoCAD you are using
4- how much AutoCAD training you have taken
THAT WAY -- your question will be easy to answer more clearly. Thanks, BOB
Experience
Interior Design and Space Planning. Autodesk U. 2000 and 2001.

AutoCAD - association between model space and paper space
Expert: Bob - 9/30/2008
Question
if i have drawn object in model space and i dimension it on paper space. and then if i move my object in model space then dimension doesn't adjust as per object in model space if dimassoc is also set to 2
Answer
Sorry, but I wonder if I need to reject all questions which do not give the person's experience level, AutoCAD release, field, objective, etc --- I am really tired of mentioning it: it wastes a lot of my donated time.
I cant suit the reply to the person properly when I am blind to relevant facts
SO --
1-- I cant tell if you have done something else wrong that is messing you up, you dont say. Have you conformed to what this discusses? It is likely the Dimension Style settings.
ftp://ftp-fc.sc.egov.usda.gov/WI/engcad/CAD_Training/dimensioning.pdf
My guess is that your answer is in the pdf, and that you are a new user who was not aware of the settings????????????????
2-- It is a poor idea to dimension until the drawing is pretty much finished, as you may know.
New releases have Associative Dimensioning, which makes dimensioning in Model Space much more attractive than formerly.
Write back with all details if that does not help
