S POP Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Any advice would be most welcome please see screen shot attached. This is a plan showing some curved lines in 2D. How do I go about dimensioning them? Is it possible? I know how I can dimension arcs and circles but these irregular lines have me stumped. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment
markdd Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 What about these irregular curves do you need to dimension? Is it the total length of the line as if flattened out? Or do you need to dimension segments. If you can elaborate that would be helpful. Mark Quote Link to comment
unearthed Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 What is the object/space? Who has to read dimensions? e.g. if a landscape a gps file for surveyor/builder to set out from, if it's an engineered part make a grid with x,y coords back to labelled points. As my work is mainly landscape I usually turn non-radius curves into curve/straight-line segments and dimension those, or a show centreline with offsets. Quote Link to comment
bcd Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 You could simply place a 2" grid over it and mark the suitable intersections. Or redraw as arcs using the polyline tool 1 Quote Link to comment
