Defining Vertical Dimensional Constraints
Use the DcVertical command to constrain the vertical distance between two points on entities with respect to the current coordinate system.
To define vertical Dimensional Constraints by specifying two constraint points:
- Click Constraints > Dimensional Constraints > Vertical (or type DcVertical).
- Specify the first constraint point on an entity.
- Specify the second constraint point on an entity.
- The second point does not need to lie on the same entity specified with the first point.
- Specify the dimension line position.
- The dimension line is created parallel to the Y-axis.
- If necessary, edit the dimension parameter value.
- Press Enter or click in the graphics area.
To define vertical Dimensional Constraints by specifying entities:
- Click Constraints > Dimensional Constraints > Vertical (or type DcVertical).
- Specify the Entity option.
- Specify an entity (Line, linear PolyLine, Arc, or elliptical Arc).
- Specify the dimension line position.
- If necessary, edit the dimension parameter value.
- Press Enter or click in the graphics area.
