Hello all,
I must dimension thousands of plans using reference lines in them. Those lines cut walls and I have to dimension them.
I would like to select all reference lines in one time and auto dimesion all spaces between lines.
I am attaching a sample drawing.
Thanks all

Hello all,
Any ideas for the issue?

Any ideas for the issue?
it can not be done automatically with standard acad commands
so
the most obvious idea is... write a function which will analyze your drawing and insert dimensions
-
Would this program be of any use to you?

Hello,
Yes I know i will need a function, but I do not know much

Hello,
Yes it's a interesting code. You select the line and make the dimensions.
But my issue is a little bit more complicated. I draw all lines and then I select them in order to create dimensions (eve if lines are swerved, as shown in drawing)

Should preface that the DWG file was created with a student edition of AutoCAD. If you're truly doing thousands of drawings it does not immediately sound like a "student".
Would "continuing" or "chaining" the dimension be similar to what you are after? There is going to be a bit of manual labor still required.

Hello,
I made the drawing at home. I cant make it at office hehe (obviously)
Anyway, dimensions must be continuing with each other. if possible, as showed in the sample.
Thanks,

Yes it can be done pick say left, pick right pick where do you want dimensions. Its available but not free very cheap. Post if you want more info.

Hello,
Could I test your code once?
-
I will put something together for you to try, are you metric or feet.

I like your dimensioning routine. Thanks for sharing...
