Edit Dimension of a Feature Using Pointer

You can directly modify the dimensions of a feature in the work area. When a pointer moves over the manipulable parameter, an additional handle appears in the form of a small arrow at dimension end. Dragging this handle enables you to modify the dimension in easier way. A ruler with parameter value is displayed during the dynamic modification, for better display and easier control.

Following are three types of dimensions that can be modified:

Length: A small handle is displayed at the end to modify the length.

Angle: A small handle is displayed along its arc to modify the angle.

Radius: Radius dimension can be manipulated using a small arrow.
