Render dimensions

miikka1978 · 14 Sept 2008, 08:00

I have multiple dimensions in my model that I would like to see when I render the model. Is there any easy way to do it? With TexTag script I can easily add text but I don't get the dimension lines and arrows. If you have any suggestions how to do this or you know some scripts that could help with this matter, please let me know.

You could put your dimensions on a separate layer and export an image file with only that layer turned on. Then overlay that image on the rendered image.

Dave's suggestion would be the only way to do it. I don't believe that the developers of SU have allowed access to the dimension tools through ruby programming.
