Brooke Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Embarrassed to say that I do not know how to and cannot find out how to dimension (size, not annotate) an entity as I draw it, rather than after; say a simple line, 6' long...(no grid). Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Start drawing a line. Hit the tab key, this will take you into the Data Bar. Type in a value in the cell and hit tab to take you to the next cell. If you lock in a value and decide you don't like it, just use tab to the field and use the delete key to remove the value. It will revert to the value drawn by the mouse. Pat Quote Link to comment
Brooke Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 Thank you, Pat. Thank you very much. Quote Link to comment
mr. iagea Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 continuing what pat mentioned, using the data bar, you can edit ALL the dimensions of the newly created object and then simply hit return once all your desired numbers are in, and the object will be created without any further mouse clicking.
