Dimension anchoring allows you to add objects (such as pieces of equipment) to a dimension chain to add spatial reference to the objects in that chain.

The main dimension template is anchored to one or more anchor templates. When you open a main rule whose template has another template anchored to it, the Dimension Rule Manager displays the name of the anchor template in the Anchor text box. You can replace the anchor template with another template, or add more anchor templates to the main template. For more information, see Anchor (dimensionAnchor value).

Your drawing view style must contain the dimension rules for both the main and anchor templates.

  • The geometric analyzer module in the anchor template must be set to Dummy (DummyGeomAnalyzer).

  • You can anchor multiple anchor templates to the main rule template.
