Notice that Standard (ISO-25) is in the Start With drop-down list
just below. Because it's the current dimension style in this drawing,
the new dimension style you're about to define will begin as a copy
of the Standard style. This is similar to the way in which new text
styles are defined (as you saw in Chapter 8), taking an existing style
that is close to what you need and modifying specific elements. The
Use For drop-down list allows you to choose the kinds of dimensions
to which the new style will be applied. In this case, it's all dimen-
sions, so you don't need to change this setting.
