UseMeasuredValueProperty

Tool

The Use Measured Value property controls whether the value of a dimension label is the scaled measurement or an inputted value.

Use an inputted value on a dimension label:
  1. Double click the dimension label.
  2. Edit the value.
  3. Click ok.
Reset a dimension label to the measured value:
  1. Select the dimension label.
  2. Open the properties window.
  3. Under Object, change Use Measured Value from No to Yes.
Notes:
  • A linear dimension label is very similar to a value cell, so you can input numbers, text, or a formula.
  • The measured value has the measurement scale applied to it.
