Align Collinear/Radial Dimensions
In a drawing view, aligns and groups selected linear, radial, or angular drawing dimensions. The selected dimensions must be of the same type and have a common direction (linear dimensions) or a common centerpoint (angular dimensions).
To align and group dimensions to be collinear:
-
In a drawing view, select a group of dimensions.
-
Click Align Collinear/Radial on the Align toolbar, or click Tools, Dimensions, Align Collinear/Radial.
The selected dimensions are arranged in a straight line. They also are grouped, and retain the linear arrangement when moved. The dimensions align to the last selected dimension.
