The Purpose attribute on the drawing template USER_Dims and USER_Labs layer elements define the display of labels and dimensions.
To define dimensioned orthogonal views, set the Purpose attribute on the USER_Dims LAYER element to DIMA and set the Purpose attribute on the USER_Labs layer element to NOLA.

To define labelled isometric views, set the Purpose attribute on the USER_Dims LAYER element to NODI and set the Purpose attribute on the USER_Labs layer element to LABA.

Note: The presence of C1 and C2 is controlled by the backing sheet.
Note: The inclusion of an Isodraft style view, results in the position labels and dimensions not being displayed on standard draft views.
