&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td style="text-align:right;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td style="text-align:right;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Problem&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dimensions are not associative despite association lock being switched ON.&lt;br /&gt;With association lock ON, dimensions still are placed as non-associative dimensions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Product: MicroStation V8i&lt;br /&gt;Version: 08.11.07.171&lt;br /&gt;Area: Dimensions, Association&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Solution&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tool settings: check Associative option.&lt;br /&gt;When starting a dimensioning command, the tool settings dialog should pop up.&lt;br /&gt;By clicking the little black triangle in the lower right corner of that, additional options will be shown. (see arrow 1)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-35/Dimension-Association-Lock.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-35/Dimension-Association-Lock.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Those options are meant to override the settings in the chosen dimension style including the association lock (see arrow 2).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In order to place an associative dimension, both Association options should be checked in Settings &amp;gt; Locks (see picture below)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-35/Association-Lock.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-35/Association-Lock.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;as well as in the Tool Settings override i.e. the Dimension Dialog shown first.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next to the override setting, compatible dimensions should be set to OFF, key in:set compatible off&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Use File&amp;gt;Save Settings to keep this status for next drawing/modeling sessions as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td style="text-align:right;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td style="text-align:right;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Problem&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dimensions are not associative despite association lock being switched ON.&lt;br /&gt;With association lock ON, dimensions still are placed as non-associative dimensions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Product: MicroStation V8i&lt;br /&gt;Version: 08.11.07.171&lt;br /&gt;Area: Dimensions, Association&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Solution&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tool settings: check Associative option.&lt;br /&gt;When starting a dimensioning command, the tool settings dialog should pop up.&lt;br /&gt;By clicking the little black triangle in the lower right corner of that, additional options will be shown.&lt;br /&gt;Those options are meant to override the settings in the chosen dimension style including the association lock.&lt;br /&gt;In order to place an associative dimension, both Association options should be checked (so in the status bar or Settings&amp;gt;Locks, as well as in the Tool Settings overrides).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next to the override setting, compatible dimensions should be set to OFF, key in:&lt;br /&gt;set compatible off&lt;br /&gt;Use File&amp;gt;Save Settings to keep this status for next drawing/modeling sessions as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;See Also&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style="font-size: 90%;"&gt;Tags: association, Migrated, Dimensions, SELECTsupport&lt;/div&gt;
