In the video you will see that I first create an offset plane on which to create cylinders which are small enough to be unnoticed in the drawing but are able to act as ‘snapping points’ for dimensioning…
At first it seems a rather tedious extra step but having become familiar with the limitations of the dimensioning options in 2D drawings I have become comfortable enough to create these ‘snapping point’ bodies without a second thought.
The video is played in real time and you can see that it takes very little time or effort yet gets the required result.
Hopefully, Shapr3D will include more dimensioning options in the future… (@Istvan)
