There is no association between different dimension elements. Line, arc, arrow, and dimension text are all created as different objects. **1:** create non association objects. Each element is a single objects in dimension. If one definition point changed, all dimension updates. **2:** create association objects. Each element is a single objects in dimension. One or more definition points are associated with points on geometric objects in dimension. If moving association points, dimension location, direction, and value all update. --- [Original help](https://www.gstarcad.net/help/GstarCAD_2027_en-US/detail/systemVariables_Dgsv/DIMASSOC.html) · © Gstarsoft Co., Ltd.
