Dimensioning

borgward
User Manual section 8 Dimensioning. I drew rectangle and followed instructions for horizontal dimension. Dimension lines and extensions appeared, but there is no dimension, or arrows at the end of the dimension line. The extension lines begin at the drawing w/no space between the rectangle and the extension line. Just looks like I added another rectangle to the rectangle.

This has to do with your settings - current drawing preferences - dimensions. Textsize, extension lines offset and arrowsize are too small in relation to the rectangle. It's quite confusing, I don't understand it completely myself. Additionally you have to consider in what scale the drawing will be printed. Just experiment a little with the dimensioning settings.
