Part V: Creating Drawings


Tip
Remember that, if necessary, you can create angle dimensions by selecting three points (vertex of the angle
first) instead of two lines. When you do this, sketch lines are typically drawn to indicate the vertex of the
angle. n


Understanding Dimension Options
The Dimension PropertyManager contains settings, default overrides, tolerances, styles, and several
other important settings for use with dimensions. The PropertyManager for driven dimensions is
shown in Figure 23.11. I cover styles and tolerances specifically later in this chapter; the other
panels of the Dimension PropertyManager are as follows.
