How do I add this annotation? It is a dimension between two lines but it is angled. By default it draws it straight out from the points.picture of what i need to draw

  • Another, easier, approach is to make a dynamic block which includes the dimension lines and import it with command asking for the parameters of the slotted hole. Then this alignment is automatically done. – Ognyan Dimitrov Feb 01 '16 at 08:56
  • If I understood you, the angled dimension is a matter of Dim Style, where you can specify the angle. – Augusto Goncalves Feb 01 '16 at 11:08

You need to use the command DIMALIGNED for this, with a perpendicular osnap.

If you want to create it with the .NET API, you need to create an AlignedDimension. There is a constructor where you pass 3 points (line1 & line2 points + dimension line point), the dimension text and the dimension style.
