3.13.1.1.9. Dimensionings in 3D preview

Up to now automatic dimensioning has only been used in the 2D derivations. As of V10 these are visualized in the PARTdataManager 3D view in addition.

Available 2D dimensionings are blended in for certain views. When turning to the side the dimensionings are hidden.

In the 3D toolbar you can find a new button Show Dimensionings . When clicking on the button you can show or hide the dimensionings.

Yellow points at the respective views signalize if dimensioning views are available, and if yes, in which views.

Dimensionings and annotations can be set in the project parametrically, thus are available in PARTdataManager for the 2D derivation and are transferred to the CAD system during the export.

Dimensioning parameters don't have to be set in a text file anymore. Now the procedure is much easier via an own dialog named "Dimensionings" in PARTdataManager.

Switching the dialog area on and off happens via context menu of the toolbars.

The dimensionings are created directly in the 3D view of PARTdataManager.

Details on this can be found under Section 7.15, “ Docking window "Dimensionings" ” in eCATALOGsolutions Manual.
