Radial Dimensions

A Radial Dimension (RDIM) is a form of linear dimension that can be used to draw radius and diameter dimensions of circular elements. A Radial Dimension does not own Dimension Point elements, but is defined by a database reference to an element type (the one to be dimensioned) and an attribute taken from that element which defines whether a diameter or a radius is to be drawn. An example is DIAM of a CYLI (the diameter of a cylinder) or FRAD of a PAVE (fillet radius of a Panel Vertex).
