<< Click to Display Table of Contents >> Dimension Style |
This style is applied when you work with the Dimension tool. The dimension style consists of an automatically generated line combination, which displays the distance between two points.
Name |
Here, you define the name of the style. You cannot leave this field empty; the chosen name must be unique, i.e. not identical to another existing name. Aside from these limitations, you are free to choose any name. |
Digits |
Number of decimal places or significant digits, which are to be displayed. The kind - Decimal Points or Significant - you can select using the adjacent drop down-list. |
Thousands delimiter |
The digits left of the decimal point will be grouped into thousands. |
Show units |
The appropriate units will be shown after each numerical value. The units can be adjusted in the Units tab of the Options dialog window. |
Show result symbols |
The appropriate symbol (dependent on what type of value) will be displayed before each numerical value. |
Line |
This setting group determines the properties of the dimension lines (color, style, size and type). Note that some of the lines cannot be shown when their thickness exceeds 0.394 mm. |
End Point Markers |
Here, you can determine how the ends of distance lines should look like. There is a drop down lists that shows the different possibilities. The same style is used for both ends of a distance line. |
