dimension a circle and rewrite the text of a dimension

françois
Hi,

I have got two problems :

1)
When I dimension a circle, the dimension doesn't get out of the part I have drawn.
Which could be ugly.
This is what I need : http://engineeringessentials.com/ege5/files/ege/dim/dim_page4.htm

2)
Sometimes I need to rewrite the text. To add a note for example.

Thanks.

Hi,

1/ this is how it was implemented. The other solution is to measure the radius, use leader and write the value of diameter in a text box.

2/ It can be done with text or mtext box.
