In addition to the attributes described in the previous section there are further attributes which control the appearance of the dimension, which are also used by Linear and Angular Dimensions (refer to Angular Dimensions for further information) and Dimension Points. These attributes are cascaded down from the owning LAYE. The attribute setting DEFAULT is not available for Radial Dimensions.
The general attributes are:
The Dimension Terminator attribute DTER. Refer to Detail Attributes of Linear Dimensions for further information.
The Terminator Size attribute TSIZ. Refer to Detail Attributes of Linear Dimensions for further information.
The Dimension Line Style and Colour attributes (DLSTYLE, DLCOLOUR) control the appearance of the dimension and leader lines. The initial values are cascaded down from LAYE level. Refer to Colours and Styles for further information.

The gaps defined in this array are applied to the dimension- and leader lines of the Radial Dimension, in addition to the gap under the dimension text that is inserted automatically in the dimension line.
