Dimensioning views (e.g. Side view, Front view, etc.) displayed in PARTdataManager, in the Technical details dialog area are managed in PARTproject as *.pra files. Normally these dimensioning views are provided by the customer as DWG or DXF files.
In PARTproject there is an importer / converter available for these files.
In the course on the import the layer are mapped to PRA pens. Complex forms like text or arrows are automatically splitted into lines.
