Dimensions Between Arcs or Circles

By default, distances are measured to the center of an arc or circle.

With the Smart Dimension Tool_Smart_Dimensions_Relations.gif tool, you can create:
  • Dimensions between arc or circle edges.
  • Dimensions between concentric circles.
  • Ordinate dimensions to minimum, center, and maximum arc extents between arcs or between a line or a point and an arc.
