Appearance
- ViewArrowsize (
Length): The size of the dimension arrows. introduced in 0.21 - ViewColor (
Color): Color for lines and text. - ViewFlip Arrowheads (
Bool): By default the value inside the dimension line/arc means the arrows pointing outwards. If placed outside the dimension line/arc, the arrows point inwards the dimension line/arc.
false- Let the direction of arrows to be selected automatically according to the rule above.true- Override the automatically chosen direction and force the opposite one.
- ViewFont (
Font): The name of the font to use for the dimension text. - ViewFontsize (
Length): Dimension text size. - ViewGap Factor ASME (
Float): Adjusts the gap between the dimension points and the start of the extension lines. The gap is this value times the line width. introduced in 0.21 - ViewGap Factor ISO (
Float): Adjusts the gap between the dimension points and the start of the extension lines. The gap is this value times the line width. introduced in 0.21 - ViewLine Spacing Factor (
Float): Adjusts the gap between the dimension text and the dimension line. The gap is this value times the line width. introduced in 0.21 - ViewLine Width (
Length): Dimension line weight. - ViewRendering Extent (
Enumeration): Rather universal property specifying how much space the dimension drawing may take up:
None- no lines or arrows are drawn, only the bare dimension value is displayed.Minimal- for lengths and angles a single headed line connecting the dimensional value and the end point's virtual extension line is drawn. The extension line itself is not added.- Diameters are rendered following
Confinedextent, radii followingReducedextent. Confined- for lengths and angles a double headed line (or arc) connecting the start and end point's virtual extension lines is drawn, though the extension lines themselves are not added.- Diameters are drawn with a minimal single headed line from dimensional value to the closest point on circle, radii as with
Reducedextent. Reduced- for lengths and angles a single headed line connecting the dimensional value and the end point's extension line is drawn along with the extension line itself.- Diameters are drawn with a single headed line from the center to the closest point on circle, radii with a minimal single headed line from dimensional value to the closest arc point.
Normal- the default value. For lengths and angles a double headed line (or arc) connecting the start and end point's extension lines is drawn, the extension lines themselves as well.- Diameters are drawn as double headed lines striking the center and connecting the closest and farthest points on the circle.
- Radii are drawn as a single headed line from center to the closest arc point.
Expanded- Only diameters support this value, rendering them in a horizontal or vertical length-like way. Other dimension types are rendered as withNormalextent.
- ViewStandard And Style (
Enumeration): Specifies the standard (and its style) according to which the dimension is drawn:

ISO Oriented- drawn according to the standard ISO 129-1, text is rotated to be parallel with the dimension line tangent.ISO Referencing- drawn in compliance with ISO 129-1, text is always horizontal, above the shortest possible reference line.ASME Inlined- drawn according to the standard ASME Y14.5M, text is horizontal, inserted in a break within the dimension line or arc.ASME Referencing- drawn in compliance with ASME Y14.5M, text is horizontal, short reference line is attached to one side's vertical center.
