Dimensioning exploded view drawing in Layout
-
Hi everybody,
I am very new to Layout and am trying to put dimensions onto an exploded view drawing.
In Sketchup the dimensionlines always align to the 3D model. This is what I want to achieve in Layout. But Layout seems to only allow vertical, horizontal or somewhat tilted (60°?) dimensionlines. Is this so?
I have attached an image to illustrate my problem. What do I need to do to get aligned dimensions within Layout similar to those in Sketchup? Is it possible?
Cheers
Mikar

Ah, I see the problem has already been discussed widely on this forum and a few workarounds have been suggested (like drawing guidelines in SU in order to place dimensiongrafics manually in LO).
Thanks
Mikar
