Icovia Tools and Interface > Toolbar > Add Line Dimension Tool

Creating a line dimension in Icovia is just like using a measuring tape. It’s a quick way to calculate the distance between two points. Line Dimensions can be added to the floor plan using the add line dimension tool located in the editor toolbar at the top of the screen.

To Make a Line Dimension:

1.	Select the add line dimension tool from the toolbar.

2.	Click once in the work area to set the location of the first point. As you move your cursor, you’ll see a real-time indication of the distance between the first point and your cursor.

3.	Click again to set the location of the second point. When you set the second point, you’ll see the line remains with the distance indicated on the line.

Note: If the second point that you pick is within a few degrees of true vertical or horizontal, the dimension line will automatically snap to true vertical or horizontal. If your intention is to have a dimension line as a slightly-off angle, edit one end after placing it.

Note: The "Snap Walls 90°" command affects line dimensions the same way as it does wall. Toggle this setting to control whether or not line dimensions will snap to 45° increments.
