- [Narrator] We're staying…in our 06_AnnotativeDimensions drawing,…and, in the previous video,…we looked at setting up a dimension style…that was non-annotative…and we also had non-annotative dimensions.…So, you'll notice we're still in the same drawing,…and you can see…that the non-annotative dimensions are not consistent…across the viewports in the layout tab,…as you can see on the screen right now.…So, I'm going to jump back into the model tab,…and what we're going to do now,…is we're going to create an annotative dimension style,…and then, what we're going to do,…is convert all of these dimensions…to an annotative dimension style.…
It's very quick and it's very easy,…and I'll show you how it works.…We're stay in the annotate tab on the ribbon,…and what we're going to do,…is we're going to jump into our dimensions styles again.…So, I'm going to click on the little arrow here,…next to dimensions on the dimensions panel there,…and you can see that we're currently with LYNDA1,…which is a non-annotative style.…Now, if I go to LYNDA here, which is annotative,…
