automatically dimensioning a complex chain
automatically dimensioning a complex chain
(OP)
I was wondering if there is a way to automatically measure and dimension a complex chain, similiar to how the label line tool (found in the misc. dimension toolbar) works. It would kind of be like a combination of the measure length tool and the label line tool, except I wouldn't need the angle or bearing like the label line tool gives. I also would not need any extension lines or dimension lines, just the length. Maybe somebody has created a macro that can do this. Any help would be appreciated.
RE: automatically dimensioning a complex chain
I am sure someone must have created a macro however... as it is a simple combination of offsetting a line from the original and putting some arrowheads on it... in conjunction with the measure along element command...
It really doesn't take long to do it manually. Good Luck
