Feature Summary
Set 2.5D Dimension in Information Mode. If this dimension is set, if the section update occurs, the 2.5D dimension is also updated according to the section.
With 2.5D Dimension, you can input dimensions on the 3D projected section created from CIM.
Linear 2.5D Dimension [Shortcut command: LD2] : Draws a linear three-dimensional dimension line in Iso View.
Aligned 2.5D Dimension [Shortcut command: AD2] : Draw an aligned three-dimensional dimension line in Iso View.
Function Explanation
Generate Drawing > 2.5D Dimension > Linear / Aligned 2.5D Dimension
Configuration of Iso View
For how to create an Iso View, refer to CIM's Drawing View Creation Method. [Named View]
Drafter's Iso View displays the 3-axis coordinate system on the angle viewed to create the View in the lower left corner. This GUI can be used as a reference when measuring the axial Delta value of the current member.
Select Hide invisible lines in 3D in Drawing Creation > Styles > Cast unit style to suppress hidden lines behind objects.
How to use Linear 2.5D Dimension
Set the distance value to be displayed → Specify the first auxiliary point → Specify the second auxiliary point → Enter the slope angle.
Distance: Based on two points on the object, the 3-dimensional straight line distance is expressed as a dimension value.
Delta-X: The amount of change in the X-axis value is expressed as a dimension value based on two points on the object.
Delta-Y : Expresses the amount of change in the Y-axis value as a dimension value based on two points on the object.
Delta-Z: Expresses the amount of change in the Z-axis value as a dimension value based on two points on the object.
How to use Aligned 2.5D Dimension
Linear Dimension is used to express the value of the dimension line horizontally or vertically.
Use Aligned Dimension when the value of the dimension line is not horizontal or vertical.
