Dimensioning
The Dimensioning tools in RocFall allow you to easily measure and display lengths and angles anywhere on the model.
Dimension Length, Width (X), Height (Y)
To dimension the length, X distance, or Y distance between any two points in the view:
- Select Dimension Length
, Dimension X (Width) 
, or Dimension Y (Height) 
from the Tools menu or from the toolbar. - Select two points between which you would like to measure the distance. You can enter the points graphically with the mouse, or enter x,y coordinates in the prompt line. (Note that the Snap options allow you to easily snap exactly to vertices, boundaries, or extension lines of vertices or boundaries.)
- As you move the mouse, the dimension (length, X distance or Y distance) between the two points will be displayed. When you are satisfied with the location of the dimension tool, click the mouse and it will be added to the view.
Dimension Angle
To dimension an angle anywhere on the model:
- Select Dimension Angle
from the toolbar, or from the Tools menu. - Enter two points defining a reference direction, from which you would like to measure an angle.
- As you move the mouse, the angle formed between the first two points and the current cursor location (third point) will be displayed. When the desired angular measurement is displayed, click the mouse and the angle dimension tool will be added to the view.
