Trivial question : dimension are dynamic ?

When I incease / decrease a volume(s) dimensionned, does they are updated ?

Hi Pilou, yes if you do something like scale them the text will update. There will be an option to override that with your own fixed text value if you want though.

This dimensioning will be tremendously useful.

Right now I'm awkwardly using the current Text entry for labeling geometry.

It seems that current Text entry requires quite a bit of memory.
What sort of memory load will the new dimensioning require?

Hi Brian, the new dimensions use only a tiny amount of memory. Text is stored just as a text string value not as a bunch of curve and surface geometry. It will definitely be a far better method for labels.

So much looking forward to using those dimensions.

Great job Michael, please keep up the good work.

I think I'll also do an option for a bracket type textbox outline like this:



I really wanted to do a circle too but it will take too much work for now.

Nice work Micheal!

Thank you!

Hi Michael - a nice addition to the notes - good to give each cad program its own visual identity when creating notes and this one certainly gives that to MoI.

Looking forward to final release on v4.

Hello Michael.

Honestly, a great job with these dimensions!
Congrats.

I don't use it (I don'use Moi for engineering purposes) but I know that many people here are waiting for this feature.

When the next beta will be released with this new feature?

Hi Marco,

> When the next beta will be released with this new feature?

As soon as it's finished up! The remaining work is to set up UI for modifying the various properties, setting up commands for creating them, and seeing if I can get them exporting to DXF/PDF formats.

Hopefully none of these will take too long but it's pretty hard to know in advance exactly how long it will take.

Got it.
Thanks
