Dimensions
Point construction is available in all syntax that requires the input of a single 2D (or, if appropriate, a 3D position). For example,
DIM CENTRE OF @
can be used to position a Dimension line to run through the centre of an existing CIRC element.
When creating linear and angular Dimensions, it is possible to dimension to a constructed 2D point using the
TO POS OF @
syntax. (Similarly FROM POS OF @. The procedure is possible provided the current VIEW is orthogonal, and the 2D position lies in the current VIEW. For example, the syntax
FROM POS OF INT @
creates a Dimension point at the intersection of two (valid) elements.
