Hi Michael ...
Thanks for all the extra effort you are putting into dimensions. It looks awesome and well worth waiting for.
cheers,
eric

Hi Terry,
> Do you know yet at what level of precision fraction will be displayed - 1/8", 1/16", 1/32"...?
My plan for "feet & inches" dimensions will be that you can choose the precision same as you do for the MoI UI under Options > General :
There will be a default value that you can set for what newly created dimensions will start out as and you'll be able to change it on individual ones.

Can we center that all group ? (don't shown on your images)
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Pilou, yes on multi-line text there is going to be an option for alignment: left, center, right, or justified.
Here's what it looks like with center alignment:

Perfect!

Really good stuff Michael !

Hi Michael,
I would ask you only, if it is possible to align the dimension description/text above the line like in technical drawings (

Thank you,
Mik

Wow, that's great news!
Blocks of text will be very useful.

I don't have that one set up quite yet to show off but it is planned.

Something like that is possible ?
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Pilou, no the new annotations won't be for doing something like that, you would need to use other drawing tools (like Draw Solid > Text and Transform > Deform > Flow) to make that type of thing.
Do you have any examples of technical drawings that have a wiggly shape like that?

From: Frenchy Pilou (PILOU)
For more versatility...
It was more purpose for graphic design objects image!
for take advantage of the possibility to draw anything in 3D or 2D! ;)
Of course Flow function can supply of that...but if it's will be in native that will give a little unic speed feature to the prog! ;)
As you draw a straight curve (?) for dimension I could believe that will be automatic to draw a sinuous one :)

Hi Pilou,
> As you draw a straight curve (?) for dimension I could believe that will be automatic to draw a sinuous one :)
Unfortunately no - it would take a lot of additional work to make dimensions able to do that it is very far from being automatic.

No problem the "Flow" will make the trick! :)
