      Hi All,
      I'm fairly new to the Sketchup Community but I've been using sketchup 8 for woodworking for about two years. I'm not a complete amateur at it but some of the plugins elude me.

      I'm looking for a plugin that will allow me to dimension ARCS! It would need to help me find the center of the arc so that I know what the radius is.

      I hope that makes sense. Thanks for all your help in advance!

        The Dimension tool will dimension arcs just fine. You can use inferencing to draw a radius to the center if needed or you could use Arc Center Point Finder to place a guidepoint at the center.

        If you were to update to the current version of SketchUp there's a native feature for placing a guidepoint at the center of an arc.
