Modify Radius Dimension

The radius dimension can also be modified retroactively, like dimension chains, angles and elevation marks. This includes all settings from the dimension style in the upper part of the dialog box.

In the lower area of the dialog box there are settings that only arise when creating the radius dimension. Therefore they are not related to the dimension style. The following settings can be changed there:

Layer: Here the layer to which the selected radius dimensions belong is displayed. By changing the layer, all selected radius dimensions are assigned to the new layer.

Radius dimension was created: The program can distinguish whether a dimension originates from a file stored by the CAD program or was entered manually in the drawing program. This information is used when inserting another file into the same view window. With the program version 'Drawing Program' you can set whether the content of the view window should be completely deleted before inserting, only the elements from a file, or nothing at all. This can be manipulated by changing the assignment of individual elements here.

To modify radius dimensions, you may select any number of radius dimensions (dimension arrows) at once. When multiple dimension arrows are selected, it may often occur that some of the arrows have different settings for one or more options. Since the program can display only one setting per option, three asterisks (***) appear in the affected field. This immediately indicates that the selected dimension arrows have different settings in that field. As long as you do not change the setting in such a field, the individual dimension arrows retain their respective settings. However, once you change the setting, all selected dimension arrows receive the new setting.
