Three dimension modes

Create Vertical distance, Elevation, or Horizontal distance dimension lines depending on what you need.

Click-to-place workflow

Click to place the first dimension, then keep clicking to place the next ones—press Esc to finish.

Associative dimensions update

In most cases, dimensions stay associative to the measured elements, so when elements move, the dimensions update automatically—no re-dimensioning needed.
