[solved] How to move Dimension text

Post by lenwinn » Mon May 28, 2018 12:42 am

When dimensioning circles the text defaults to a mid position over the arrows. Is there a way to extend the leader to allow the text to be placed in clear space ?
Thanks

No but you can move the dimension text manually. To do so select the dimension. You'll see blue reference points - one is located in the middle of the dim text. Use this reference point with your mouse to Drag and drop the text to a more convenient location.
