Area Dimension Styles should be their own style type

[giudansky]

Font size area style in scene properties, does not change fonts in the view.

Hey @giudansky

This should be fixed now in that latest development version (commit 7642682).

Give it a try and let me know if it works.

I'm going to leave this issue open, since right now styles for area dimensions are a bit of a hack, they're using the same settings as length dimensions, but should probably have their own style type.

[giudansky]

Yes, it works now.
Not sure if it's still due to style type, but area overlays makes others lines/text negative, changing colors.

Any way to make em black like all the others ?

Hey @giudansky

hmmm that's odd. I can't seem to reproduce this on my end, could you post an example file that's having this issue?

[giudansky]

Just found out it was due to the fill color in the "active dimension setting".

I love measureit arch. When will replace the old one inside blender ?

Thanks

[kevancress]

Ahh okay, glad its resolved!

Thanks!!! No plans right now for it to replace MeasureIt. Actually, because MeasureIt_ARCH uses some external libraries for exporting to svg & dxf I'm not sure it would be accepted as a core addon that's included with Blender
