Dimensioning: lenght of the witness lines


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I would like to have very short witness lines, as short as the slash lines. Still I want the dimension line to be to quite much offset from the object. Now I have to shorten every witness line by dragging them manually?I lose the reference points? also the line lenghts are not equal.

Any suggestions?

You can change the distance that the witness lines offset from the object. Go to File>Preferences>Document Preferences>Dimensions. You want to create a custom dimension. Name it, and hit the edit button. You can change the offset to whatever seems to work for your purposes. Set the custom dimension type to be your default.
