The Generative Drafting workbench provides a simple method for generating dimensions. Generated dimensions are associative to the elements created from a part or an assembly.
| Before you begin: All you need to know before you start generating dimensions. | |
|
|
Generate dimensions in one shot: Generate dimensions in one shot from the constraints of a 3D part (distance, length, angle, radius and diameter constraints). |
| Filter dimensions to be generated: Set filters before dimension generation using the Dimension Generation Filters dialog box. | |
|
|
Generate dimensions semi-automatically: Generate dimensions step by step from the constraints of a 3D part (distance, length, angle, radius and diameter constraints). |
| Analyze generated dimensions: Perform an analysis of generated dimensions via the Generated Dimensions Analysis dialog box. | |
|
|
Position dimensions: Position dimensions (either generated dimensions or interactive dimensions) in a better way and on the active view exclusively. |
|
|
Analyze interfering dimensions: Analyze dimensions that were generated and possibly re-positioned (Positioning icon) on the active view. |
| Driving 3D constraints via generated dimensions: Drive a 3D constraint via a 2D dimension that was generated from it. |
