Class AlignedDimension

A linear dimension aligned along the line between the specified start and end.

Examples
var l = Polygon.L(5, 5, 1);
var m = new Mass(l, 1, BuiltInMaterials.Glass);
this.Model.AddElement(m);

var offset = 0.125;
m.UpdateRepresentations();
var dimensions = new List<LinearDimension>();
foreach (var f in m.Representation.SolidOperations[0].Solid.Faces)
{
    var p = f.Value.Outer.ToPolygon();
    var segs = p.Segments();
    var plane = p.Plane();

    for (var i = 0; i < segs.Length; i++)
    {
        var a = segs[i];
        var d = new AlignedDimension(a.Start, a.End, offset, a.Direction().Cross(plane.Normal));
        dimensions.Add(d);
    }
}

Constructors

AlignedDimension(Vector3, Vector3, Plane, String, String, String)

Create an aligned dimension from JSON.

Declaration
[JsonConstructor]
public AlignedDimension(Vector3 start, Vector3 end, Plane referencePlane, string prefix = null, string suffix = null, string displayValue = null)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Vector3 start

The start of the dimension.
Vector3 end

The end of the dimension.
Plane referencePlane

The plane on which the dimension is projected.
System.String prefix

Text that appears before the dimension's value.
System.String suffix

Text that appears after the dimension's value.
System.String displayValue

Text that appears in place of the dimension's value.

AlignedDimension(Vector3, Vector3, Double, Vector3)

Create a linear dimension where the reference line is created by offsetting from the line created between start and end by the provided value.

Declaration
public AlignedDimension(Vector3 start, Vector3 end, double offset = 0, Vector3 offsetDirection = default(Vector3))
Parameters
Type Name Description
Vector3 start

The start of the dimension.
Vector3 end

The end of the dimension.
System.Double offset

The offset of the reference line.
Vector3 offsetDirection

The direction in which the annotation will be offset from the dimension line.
