Description
The TechDraw AxoLengthDimension tool adds a length dimension to an axonometric view. The dimension may be the length of an edge or the distance between two vertices. The distance will initially be the projected distance (ie as shown on the drawing), but this may be changed to the actual 3D distance using the TechDraw LinkDimension tool.
Axonometric length dimensions based on an edge (blue) and two vertices (red)
Usage
- Do one of the following:
- Select two edges (e1 and e2 in the image). The first edge defines the direction of the dimension line and the measured distance. The second edge defines the direction of the extension lines.
- Select two edges (e3 and e4 in the image) and two vertices (v1 and v2 in the image). The first edge defines the direction of the dimension line. The second edge defines the direction of the extension lines. The vertices determine the measured distance.
- Press the Axonometric length dimension button.
- An axonometric dimension will be added to the view. The dimension may be dragged to the desired position.
- If needed, add tolerances as described on this page.
To change the properties of a dimension object either double-click it in the drawing or in the Tree view. This will open the dimension dialog.
