Description

The TechDraw ExtensionCreateHorizChainDimension tool creates horizontal chain dimensions: a sequence of aligned dimensions.

On the right the created dimensions

Usage

  1. Select three or more vertexes.
  2. The two leftmost vertexes determine the position of the chain dimension.
  3. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
  4. Chain dimensions with centered dimension texts are created.
