Size Measurement

 

 

 

 

This type of measurement allows you to know the dimensions of the entity selected. (characteristics of a circle, a face, a length of edge, ...)

 

Creation Stages / Use:

 

  1. Choose the Selection mode. This filter allows you to only select curves, surfaces, volume or for the automatic mode, to select all.

  2. Select the geometry to measure.

  3. Select the frame in relation to which the result will be displayed.

  4. Validate by clicking .

 

 

  • For edges, profiles, sketches,... this measurement type allows to know the entity type (line, arc, ...) and also its dimensional characteristics (coordinates of its start and end points, its length for a line; radius, diameter, perimeter, center point coordinates for arcs and circles).

  • For surfaces, this type of analysis allows you to know the type of surface (planar, cylinder, etc.) as well as dimensional characteristic (surface area and perimeter for a plane, radius, diameter and surface area for a cylinder).

  • For shapes, this type of analysis allows to know the surface and the volume of the selected shape.

  • If one or both cumulated computations are checked, then an additional line for the computation results appears in the label.

  • If the automatic mode is selected, then the order of selection of the elements by type is as follows: Surfaces; Curves; Points; Axes; Plans; Sections.

  • A contextual menu is available when there are several labels. This menu allows you to

- Delete

- Delete others

- Delete all labels

 

 

If Computation of the cumulated length and Computation of the cumulated surface area are checked, the lengths will be cumulated between them and the surface areas themselves, if the selection is made alternately.
