Summary | 0003337: Add Arbitrary Dimension | ||||
Description | Forum discussion Add the ability to add a Dimension to a View that is linked to geometry (edge,vertex), but uses a user entered value. This could be useful, for example, to apply "radius" dimensions to spline curves. | ||||

My impression is that the forum discussion talks more about a callout than an arbitrary dimension. A callout can add any text string. The line and arrow attached to the callout note is called a "leader". Usually there's a break on the line, with a small segment close to the text note and parallel to it; or you can choose not to have a break. A callout would be very useful to have in TechDraw. (It's similar to Draft Label) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callout https://duckduckgo.com/?q=technical+drawing+callout&t=canonical&iax=images&ia=images |
