Command - Prb_OrdinateDim

   

This command will draw a set of ordinate dimensions.

The command input is almost the same as the AutoCAD/BricsCAD Aligned Dimension command.


It also allows you to draw oblique dimensions. To do that, press <Enter> right after starting the command. Then select an oblique line in the view to which you want the new dimension to be aligned to.


When the new dimensions are drawn on a Parabuild sheet and the current layer is set to 0 then the new dimensions will be set on the Pb_TracWorkshopDims layer so that they get the same colour as automatically drawn dimensions.
But when the current layer is set to a layer other than 0, then the new dimensions will get the current layer. This gives the drafter more control to use colouring schemes when manually drafting dimensions.
