TechDraw ExtensionCreateHorizCoordDimension

Description

The TechDraw ExtensionCreateHorizCoordDimension tool creates 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 the Cascade spacing box in the TechDraw ExtensionSelectLineAttributes tool.
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:
   • Press the TechDraw ExtensionCreateHorizCoordDimension button.
   • Select the TechDraw → Extensions: Dimensions → Create horizontal coordinate dimension option from the menu.
4. Coordinate dimensions with centered dimension texts are created.
