Context: The dimension tool is interactive; Abaqus/CAE uses preselection and the Sketcher entities that you select to display a preview of the dimension that will be created. If the dimension type shown is not the type that you want to create, move the cursor to another location. Once you accept the dimension type and position, you can enter a new dimension value. Note:
The interactive function of the dimension tool is available only if preselection is active. Preselection is toggled on by default in the Sketcher Options dialog box. (For more information , see The Sketcher cursors and preselection.) |
