TechDraw Dimension Length

Description
The Dimension Length tool adds a linear dimension to a View. The dimension may be between the distance between two vertices, the length of one edge or the distance between 2 edges. The distance will initially be the projected distance (ie as shown on the drawing), but this may be changed to the actual 3D distance using the Link Dimension tool.

How to use

 * 1) Select the points or edge which define your measurement.
 * 2) Press the  button
 * 3) A dimension will be added to the View.  The dimension may be dragged to the desired position.
