This command is a shortcut to the Linear Rotated option of the AMPOWERDIM command. It measures the distance between two points in a direction that is at an angle to a line connecting the two points.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Angle of dimension line
Specifies how far to rotate the dimension line.
First extension line origin
Specifies the first point that defines the rotated linear dimension (1 in the illustration).
Second extension line origin
Specifies the second point that the rotated linear dimension (2 in the illustration).
Dimension line location
Specifies where to place the dimension line. The dimension line moves only in the direction perpendicular to the specified angle (3 in the illustration).
Rotated
Sets the dimension type to rotated linear dimensions.
Angle of dimension line - Specifies how far to rotate the dimension line.
First extension line origin - Specifies the first point that defines the rotated linear dimension (1 in the illustration).
Second extension line origin - Specifies the second point that the rotated linear dimension (2 in the illustration).
Dimension line location - Specifies where to place the dimension line. The dimension line moves only in the direction perpendicular to the specified angle (3 in the illustration).
Placement options
Provides options to override the default distance snap settings.
Select object - Specifies an object to use as the base for the distance snap calculation.
Options - Displays a dialog box, which enables you to override the snap distance or turns distance snap on or off, temporarily.
Options
Displays the Power Dimension Options dialog box enabling you to pre-configure options for this command session.
Note: This option is visible in the command line only if the AMPOWERDIMEDITOR system variable is set to 0 or the ribbon is turned off.
