Creating AutoCAD Dimensions (DIM command) from lines

[kevin.carvalho]

Hello, guys

As there is in Revit with Clockwork for Dynamo, I was wondering if it’s possible to make Dimensions on Civil 3D.

All I have is a bunch of lines, and from those lines, I would like to make dimensions.
I can’t find any component able to do it.

Any help will be appreciated.

I’m pretty sure there aren’t any nodes out there that will do this (yet), so you’d have to write one in Python or a ZT node. Have a look at the AlignedDimension class in the AutoCAD .NET API.

This is possible with the nodes in Camber v3.0.0.
