    Hi !
    It would be nice to develop dimension tools in SU !

    • Continue dimension tool
    • Diameter and radius dimensions
    • Dimension text position (to move text where you want)
    • Different dimension styles
    • Etc...

    No ruby masters can develop these scripts without recreating the initial dimension script... Quite difficult !! The dimension entities are inaccessible via ruby...

    Frenglish at its best !

      Hi Matt,

      From your recent posts I see that you wish to develop SU via ruby and concentrate your wishes around this but in this particular post you opnly mention it at the end. Anyway, what I want to say is that radius and diameter dimensions already exist in SU.

      Sure angular dimension does not (natively) and there could be a lot to develop / enhance in this field.

      Gai...

        I totally agree with you. the dimension tool as it exists is flexible enough.

          Not on a component... Like all dimension tools except points to points dimension... I work exclusively with components/groups. I think it's a big problem.

          I don't think so... For example, it's impossible to move a text from its place... I have to move all the dimension !!
          I use very often these tools for production, and it seems to me that they are a little lighter... 😉
          But it is my opinion! 😄

                Being able to move the dimension text would be helpful; I've been doing some work in Layout and it can be a time-wasting pain to get the blasted text in a visible place.

                Better yet - for my current purposes - would be for the dimensioning to be done in Layout and not in the raw model. I
