EXTRACTED KNOWLEDGE / HOW-TOFROM CONVERSATION
QUESTION / CONTEXTwe are cooking today, Can we write a code that auto dimensions edge properties in an idw. I want it to work like my Dimension Overall except prompt me to pick a point to use as "0" Inventor 2023
IMPORTANT GUIDANCE
lets you pick a drawing view
then prompts you to pick a “0” point (datum) on the sheet
then automatically creates baseline-style dimensions from that datum to the outer extents of the view (Left / Right / Bottom / Top)
--
Run the rule
Click the drawing view
Click your “0” point (a drawing point / center mark is ideal)
It will drop 4 dims from datum to left/right/top/bottom extents of the view.
