You can dimension the *.3db object using the buttons in the bottom toolbar of the new 2-D drawing window.

Draw the dimensioning line at the desired position und fix it by mouse click.

--> All dimensioning elements and the menu window Change parameter become visible.

Define the Offset value (dimension to reference axis) and the Height (Type size) of dimension (see fig.).

Dimensioning text:

Default is "{AUTOMATIC%0}" with curly braces. (In the above example "%0", so that "8" without decimal places is displayed as dimensioning number.

"AUTOMATIC" takes the current value from the geometry. (Not recommended).

Define a static, dynamic or mixed static-dynamic Measure text.

Using %"number" you can define Decimal digits. (For example: A={A%2})

Dimensioning text: static Add any static text.

dimensioning text: static - dynamic Connect the two options.

Dimensioning text: dynamic Now enter the desired variables. The desired value is dynamically generated.

Dimensioning text - 3 possibilities

Note To satisfy high design demands, you can create external preview pictures and provide it as *.pra file for example. On this see Section 5.5.2, “Import DWG/DXF files and convert them into .pra format”. Dynamic generation of the variables content in the measure text is only possible like described above!

Close the 2-view.

The new created view will be displayed in the "History" menu.

-> The dimensioning image is now available as 2-D view in PARTdataManager.
