In the Sketch application, when zooming in or out, how can the sketch dimension 
values maintain their size so they are always readable?



Solution

 To edit an existing Sketch: 
1. 'Edit with Rollback' the Sketch feature. 
2. On the 'Task' ribbon tab, select 'Sketch Settings'. 
3. Toggle ON 'Fixed Height on Screen'. 
4. Set the desired 'Text Height' value. 
5. OK the Sketch Settings dialog. 
Now when the Sketch is zoomed in or out, the dimension values will stay the 
same height.


To set preferences for all future Sketches: 
1. In the Menu, select 'Preferences-->Sketch'. 
2. Select the 'Sketch Settings' tab. 
3. Toggle ON 'Fixed Height on Screen'. 
4. Set the desired 'Text Height' value. 
5. OK the Sketch Settings dialog. 
Now when a new Sketch is created and the Sketch is zoomed in or out, the 
dimension values will stay the same height.
