The basic types of dimensioning are aligned, linear, angular, radius, diameter, and arc length.

Super Dimension #

Create multiple types of dimensions within a single command session.
When you hover over an object for dimensioning, the DIM command automatically previews a suitable dimension type to use. Select objects, lines, or points to dimension and click anywhere in the drawing area to draw the dimension.
The supported dimension types range from vertical, horizontal, aligned, and rotated linear dimensions, to angular dimensions, to radius, diameter, jogged radius, and arc length dimensions, to baseline and continued dimensions.
• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Super dimension”
• Press enter and then select the dimension entity
Select objects
Automatically selects an applicable dimension type for the objects you select and displays the prompts corresponding to that dimension type.
• Specify dimension position

Quick Dimension #

Create a series of dimensions quickly from selected objects.

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Quick dimension”
• select the object to quick dimension

Dimension merge #

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Dimension merge”
• select the dimension lines to merge

Quick Dimension with baseline #

Create a linear, angular, or ordinate dimension from the baseline of the previous or selected dimension.

•Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Quick dimension with baseline”
• select the object to quick dimension

Aligned Dimension #

Create a linear dimension that is aligned with the origin points of the extension lines.

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Aligned”
• Specify the first point of dimension.
• Specify the second point of dimension.
• Specify dimension position.

Linear Dimension #

Creates a linear dimension with a horizontal, vertical, or rotated dimension line

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Linear”
• Specify the first point of dimension.
• Specify the second point of dimension.
• Specify dimension position.

Angular Dimension #

Angular dimensions measure the angle between two selected geometric objects or three points.

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Angular”
• Specify the first point of dimension.
• Specify the second point of dimension.
• Specify dimension position.

Radius Dimension #

Measures the radius of a selected circle or arc and displays the dimension text with a radius symbol in front of it. You can use grips to reposition the resulting radius dimension easily.

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Radius”
• Specify the arc/circle.
• Specify dimension position.

Diameter Dimension #

Measures the diameter of a selected circle or arc, and displays the dimension text with a diameter symbol in front of it. You can use grips to easily reposition the resulting diameter dimension.

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Diameter”
• Specify the arc/circle.
• Specify dimension position.

Leader #

Create a line that connects annotation to a feature.
• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Leader”
• Specify first point
• Specify second point
• Enter the lable text, and click ok

Mleader #

Create a multileader object. A multileader object typically consists of an arrowhead, a horizontal landing, a leader line or curve, and either a multiline text object or a block.

• Click Menu “Editor”, and then choose “Mleader”
• Specify a location for the arrowhead of the multileader object.
• Specify a location for the landing line of the multileader object.
• Enter the label text.
• Click “OK” to add.

Arc Length Dimension #

Arc length dimensions measure the distance along an arc or polyline arc segment.

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Dim arc length”
• Specify the arc/circle entity.
• Specify dimension position.

Ordinate dimension #

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Ordinate dimension”
• Specify the point to dim
• Specify second point

Ordinate XY dimension #

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Ordinate XY dimension”
• Specify the point to dim
• Specify second point

Dimension alignment #

Dimension alignment is only valid for rotated dimension and align dimension.
• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “dimension alignment”
• Select dim to alignment
• Specify align point

Geometric tolerance #

Geometric tolerances show acceptable deviations of form, profile, orientation, location, and run out of a feature.

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Geometric tolerance”
• enter the tolerances
• Specify the first point of geometric tolerance
• specify the next point
• …right click to finish

Edit geometric tolerance #

• Click Menu “Dimension”, and then choose “Edit Geometric tolerance”
• Specify geometric tolerance
• change the values and click ok to finish

How to add new Dimension Style? #

• Click Menu “Options”, and then choose “Dim style…”

• Click “New” button, and then enter dim name
• Choose the line and arrow settings
• Choose the text settings
• Choose the unit settings
• Save the dim style

How to change Dimension Style of dim objects? #

• Select the dim objects whose style you want to change.
• Right-click in the drawing area, and choose Properties.
• In the Properties palette, click dim style, and then click the down arrow. From the drop-down list, choose the style that you want to assign to the objects.

• The style that you choose overrides the default style for the selected objects.

How to change Dimension Scale? #

• Check which dim style you are using.
• Click “Options/Dim style” and then change the measurement scale that you would like to use.
• Make dimension on the drawing with this new dimension style.
