Creating Multiple Dimensions

Multiple Dimensions lets you create one or several dimensions between electrical parts, at one shot, depending on the number of measure points (default or user-defined measure points) you select.

If you select n number of measure points, you obtain n-1 dimensions. Moreover, as the junction between segments is automatically considered as a measure point, a new dimension is created each time a junction is found.

  1. Hover the pointer over the different segments.

    The available measure points appear.

    By default, the available measure points for supports or protections are the entry and exit points. Ctrl + hover over the support or protection to show the middle measure point.

  2. Click the required measure points.

    : Indicates selected measure points.

  3. In the Electrical Dimensions dialog box, click OK.


    To reposition the dimensions, you can click the annotation and move them up, down, right, or left.
