Add automatic and manual dimensions, and annotation notes with leaders.
Dimensions and annotations document a layout for review and export.
Dimensions
Use the Dimension verb and the Show dimensions toggle to display measurements on the plan.
Automatic dimensions are derived from the geometry (room and equipment). You can hide an
automatic dimension you don't want shown.
Manual dimensions are ones you add yourself between points. You can adjust a manual
dimension's offset (how far the dimension line sits from what it measures) and delete it.
All dimension values are in millimetres.
Annotations
The Annotate verb adds note callouts. Select an object to annotate ("Select an object to
annotate, or press Esc to cancel"), then position the note.
Each annotation can show a leader (a line with an elbow) pointing from the note to its target.
In the inspector you can:
Toggle Show leader & elbow.
Set the leader end style: None, Arrow, or Filled Circle.
Drag the note text or the leader elbow to reposition them.
