New in SolidWorks 2014: Angular Running Dimensions
A new type of dimension is now available in SolidWorks called Angular Running which allows you create a set of angle dimensions that originate from a common origin in a style similar to Oridinate Dimensions. Options are available to meet ISO standards, such as adding a chain (dimension lines with direction arrow), and aligned text. Options are also available to apply ASME style rules as well, such as horizontal text. Angular Running Dimensions are added and modified similar to Ordinate and Baseline Dimensions, including the ability to add dimensions to an existing set of Angular Running Dimensions.
