appearece of aligneddimension when elevation and new normal is set
hi
i have a aligned dimension with extline1point(0,10,0), extline1point(10,10,0) and dimlinepoint(10,0,0) with dimensiontext at (5,0,0) having normal(zaxis) and elevation =0;
now if i set elevation =5, and normal = (1,1,1) then how this aligned dimension will appear in autocad or how the position of dimension lines and extension lines are going to modify according to new elevation and normal.
regards!
some points are stored in dimension in world coordinates (wcs) some in object coordinate system (ocs). changing normal of existing dimension may not always produce desired results. if a new dimension is being created normal should be set first before specifying points.
for existing dimension it's better to use transformby() method to change dimension's plane.
