Notes
- Circles, arcs and arc segments of polylines are dimensioned; for the diameter use DIMDIAMETER.
- The dimension uses the current dimension style (DIMSTYLE); change it with DIMSTYLE.
- Location options, as in AutoCAD: Mtext, Text (
<>is the measurement) and Angle (text rotation). You can also change the text afterwards with DIMEDIT. - If its points lie on the geometry (endpoint, midpoint, center...), the dimension is associated with it and follows it when it is moved, stretched or scaled (DIMASSOC). With an annotative dimension style, the dimension is annotative.
