How to measure dimensions in a render or vector view?

[NW Dave]

You can export it as a DFX current view,then import it back to dimension it..

Hi Allen,

I'm working on fine tuning elevation cross sections. Using your suggestion to export then import a .dfx current view makes it possible to dimension to things that beforehand will not 'reflect' a dimension end without having to first draw extra lines on that surface.

It seems odd that the extra step (export/import) is necessary. Your comment "Like doing a view to cad in Chief..." leads me to think that the workaround in Pro is not necessary in Chief?

Hi Dave it is not.We have a tool="view to cad"..
But for the price difference,you have to expect and be glad to have these..
