Dimension arrows color

Summary

When I try to print the attached file the arrow heads of the dimensions disappear. I believe that this is because the dimension style for the dimensions has set the arrow heads to be white? However I cannot find a way to change their color, and hence get them to print.

Solution

Dimensions use VDDIM_DEFAULT block as arrow.So if you want to change the color of these arrows you must either change the fill color of the polyline inside VDDIM_DEFAULT block (you can't do that in vectorcad, only by code) or make your own block -arrow and set it at the arrowname property of the dimstyle(Format-Dimstyles-Arrowname).
