System Variable to make Dim's selectable.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Does anyone remember the System Variable or Command to allow Dim's to be selectable?

 

I need to be able to pick the end point of a dim line to measure to or from.

 

Thanks,

 

Daniel

Don't do that. You shouldn't have any need to dimension a dimension.

That was my question. If you already have a ruler, why use another ruler to measure the first ruler?

 

You've already got two points defining the dimension, use one of them for the new dimension. Those points can be found with the Node snap.

Open Options, goto Drafting tab. Under 'Object Snap Options' - Unselect the box for 'Ignore dimension extension lines'
