Scroll |
Fixation is available for dimensions of all types, except the following:
•arc dimension,
•level dimension for top view with leader,
•level dimension directly on the image,
•linear dimension with a break.
|
Automatic fixation of a linear dimension with a broken line is possible if it is set for the segment and the centerline. Details... |
To fix the value of an associative dimension, the Fix Dimension 
command is used.
Step-by-step instructions
1.Specify a linear, diameter, radial or angular dimension to fix its value.
A constraint Fixed dimension will be applied to the dimension.
|
Non-associated (having no snap) or excessive dimensions (calculated using previously placed dimensions) cannot be fixed. |
After fixing a dimension, a rectangular marquee will appear around the dimension text. It is displayed in the graphic range if in the current document tab the Enabled display constraints. This marquee will not be printed.
2.To finish execution of the command, press Complete 
button.
Dimensions can be automatically fixed when they are created in parametric mode. For this, the Setting up the parametric mode Options Dimensions in the list Associate on input and Fix dimensions must be enabled. The constraint will also appear when you set non-excessive associative dimensions.
|
When dimensions are fixed automatically, they are also assigned names of variables. |
V constraint display mode Values of fixed dimensions are displayed in a rectangular marquee.
