Dimension line

Adds a chain of dimensions based on two actions - selection of anchored elements and pointing with the cursor where the dimension is located

Algorithm:

1. Select the elements of the model and the axes to be bound to.
2. Select two points with the cursor.

The conditional line between these points must intersect the dimensioned objects. The start and end points of the dimension line do not need to be on a perfect straight line from each other.

Limitations:

Dimensioning is available between parallel element faces

The add-in measures only the following categories of objects:

• foundation slabs
• floor
• structural columns
• walls
• doors
• window
• grid

 Example 1: only axes 1 and 3 are selected
