DIMANGULAR command

Creates an angular dimension by selecting an entity or specifying the vertex and both sides of the angle. The dimension is based on the current dimension style. Options allow you to specify the angle and contents of the dimension text.

Select line, arc or circle

Allows you to begin creating an angular dimension by selecting a line, arc, or circle to dimension.

If you selected a line or line segment the following option appear:

Other line for angular dimension

Allows you to specify another line segment.

If you selected a circle the following option appear:

Other side of angle

Allows you to specify a point to define one side of the angle. The point where you first selected the circle defines the other side of the angle.

1. Select circle
2. Other side of circle
3. Vertex of angle
4. Location of dimension arc

Location of dimension arc

Specifies the location of the dimension arc.

1. First side of angle
2. Other side of angle
3. Vertex of angle
4. Location of dimension arc

Press ENTER to specify angle

Allows you to begin creating an angular dimension by specifying the vertex and the sides of the angle.

Vertex of angle

Allows you to specify the vertex of angle.

First side of angle

Specifies a point to define one side of the angle.

Other side of angle

Specifies a point to define the other side of the angle.

1. First side of angle
2. Location of dimension arc
3. Other side of angle
4. Vertex of angle

Angle

Specifies the angle of the dimension text. A value of 0 aligns the dimension text with the dimension line. Any other value rotates the dimension text relative to the x-axis of the current UCS.

Text

Allows you to enter text to override the default dimension text which includes the measured length of the dimension. You can use two angle brackets <> to display the measured length of the dimension in addition to other text.
