Creating Quick Coordinate Dimensions
This section explains the Quick Coordinate Dimension feature. Procedure: [1] Click [Quick] under the [Coordinate Dimension] menu in the [Annotation] tab. [2] First, click the point to be defined as the origin (base point). [3] Click any point where ...
Replacing Dimensions with Custom Text
This section explains how to replace dimension values with custom text. This is useful when representing parts of the same shape but with different dimensions. When a dimension is replaced from real value to custom text, the base value, prefix, and ...
Creating Geometric Tolerances
This section explains how to create geometric tolerances in a drawing created with CAXA Draft. Geometric tolerances can be added from the [Annotation] tab → [Annotation] group. Please refer to the video below. CA-027
Creating Free Coordinate Dimensions
This section explains how to create free coordinate dimensions. Define the starting point and fill in the coordinate dimensions while selecting the X and Y coordinates. You define a starting point and input coordinate dimension values by selecting X ...
Creating an Angular Dimension Using [3-Point Angular Dimension]
One method for adding angular dimensions to geometry in CAXA Draft is using the [Three-point Angle]. This section explains how to create an angular dimension using this method. The [Three-point Angle] dimension allows you to define an angle by ...
Creating Angular Continuous Dimension
This section explains how to create [Angle Continuous] dimensions. As shown in the figure below, you can create dimensions for a series of continuous angles in a single operation on a plan view or similar drawing. Please refer to the video below. ...
Create Pyramid Pitch / Curvature Dimension / Big Arc / Angle Continuous
The CAXA Draft drawing explains how to create the following special dimensions: Pyramid/Pitch Curvature Dimension Big Arc Angle Continuous Please refer to the video below. CA-033
Create dimensions in parallel for angled parts
Introduce how to create dimensions in parallel for an angled part. In case of "Base" command [1] Select "Base" from Smart Dimension pull-down menu on the "Annotation" tab. [2] Select a line from draw, then an endpoint (intersection) or line. By both ...
Insert special symbols directly
Explain how to add special symbols such as Φ, °(degree), X(vs), ±(plus and minus) to the dimensions you created. [1] To insert a special symbol directly, double-click the dimensions to move the cursor to the entry on the Properties dialog. (Dimension ...
Change Chamfer Dimension Notation
This section explains how to work with chamfer dimensions in CAXA Draft. When adding chamfer dimensions in CAXA Draft, you can choose from the following four notation formats: Dimensions × Dimensions (1×1) Dimensions x Angle (1×45°) Angle × Dimension ...
Creating Staggered Dimension
This section explains how to create [Staggered Dimension]. When dimension lines and text become crowded, you can place coordinate dimensions using leader lines with bends to specify their positions clearly. There are two methods for creating stepped ...
Creating Hole Coordinate Dimensions
This section explains how to create hole coordinate dimensions. [Hole] of coordinate dimensions display the X and Y coordinate values of holes in a projected view from an arbitrary reference point. You can also select points on shapes, not just ...
Create Dimensions on an Isometric View
This section explains how to create dimensions on an isometric view exported from a 3D scene. If the Isometric View Has Not Yet Been Created In the following steps, make settings and create dimensions: [1] Open CAXA Draft, then go to [Menu] → ...
Create an [Auto Hole List]
This section explains how to generate a table listing the X and Y coordinates of holes measured from a reference point. Procedure: [1] Go to the [Annotations] tab → [Coord] group → click [Auto Hole List]. [2] Pick a line as X and Y axis from view. ...
Create "Chamfer" dimensions for tilted parts
Explain how to create chamfer dimensions (C style) of tilted parts. Auxiliary View can be created in the same way. Procedure: [1] Click "Chamfer" on the Annotation tab. [2] Set the instance menu items at the bottom left of the screen. 1: Default ...
Create dimensions with the "Hole Dimension" command
Explain how to create dimensions with the "Hole Dimension" on the "3D Interface" tab. The Hole Dimension command displays dimensions on holes projected onto CAXA Draft based on hole information created with 3D data. Examples of projections linked to ...
Create Progressive Dimensions (Coordinate Dimension)
In CAXA Draft, progressive dimension is referred to as [Coordinate Dimension]. To create dimensions based on any arbitrary reference point in the drawing, use [Align] in the [Coordinate Dimensions]. When you select [Align], the instance menu will ...
Create Dimensions with Leader Lines
When adding dimensions to a projected view, dimensions may sometimes overlap with adjacent ones. You can improve drawing readability by adding leader lines to the dimensions. Procedure: [1] Select the dimension, then click [Modify Dimension] in the ...
Add an angle to the dimension extension line
When entering dimensions for a figure in CAXA Draft, the dimension lines are usually created horizontally/vertically or parallel to the shape lines (left figure). This section explains how to add an angle the dimension extension lines. (right ...
