Description

The TechDraw ExtensionCreateHorizCoordDimension tool adds horizontal coordinate dimensions: multiple evenly spaced dimensions starting from the same baseline.

On the right the created dimensions

Usage

  1. The spacing is determined by ...?
  2. Select three or more vertices in any order. The leftmost vertex determines the position of the baseline.
  3. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
  4. Coordinate dimensions with centered dimension texts are created.
