Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing

The Vectorworks Design Series products provide the tools required for dimensioning a drawing according to ISO and ANSI/ASME geometric dimensioning and tolerancing standards.

The Feature Control Frame, Datum Feature Symbol, and Datum Target Symbol are inserted into the Dimension class by default; control the appearance of these markers globally by editing the parameters of this class. To control the text characteristics (font size and style) globally, assign a text style to the class. You can also apply text styles or Text menu options to format individual markers.

For more information about editing class attributes and formatting text, see Setting Class Properties, Formatting Text, and Using Text Styles.
