Radius
Use the Radius dimension to set the radius for a circular edge.
Add a Radius dimension as follows:
1
Click the Radius () toolbar button.
2
Select a circular edge.
3
Click somewhere on the canvas to place the arrow symbol.
4
In the Settings window for Radius edit the value in the Radius text field.
5
Click Build Selected to rebuild the geometry with the new radius.
The Settings window for Radius contains the following sections:
•
Edge Selection: Change the selected circular edge.
•
Dimension Value:
-
Edit the radius expression.
-
Toggle the Constrain button to switch between using the dimension as a constraining dimension (, default) or measuring dimension (). The value of a measuring dimension is not imposed as a requirement to the drawing. Instead it is updated according to other dimensions and constraints in the geometry sequence. For more information see Measuring Dimensions.
-
Select the Create measuring parameter checkbox to generate a parameter for the dimension. Edit the name displayed in the Parameter name text field. When in sketch visualization mode, the parameter name is displayed in the dimension’s label in the Graphics window. Use dimension parameters in expressions in geometry and other features as described in Dimension Parameters.
