Hi,

I'm trying to make a break dimension using WF 4.0. that will show a dimension from engine center to my feature area.

I was instructed by another ProE user that erasing line entities would work. However, when doing this, I got a double arrow on the area that I erased. What is this?

More importantly, how do I show a break line dimension with a squiggle symbol?

Thanks

The double arrow indicates that end of the dimension is off the view.

A breakline dimension would do this to & would also confirm to ASME / ASNI standards.

Is this a ProE thing? Is there a way to show a breakline dimension with break symbols?

Thanks
 
Double arrowheads is an ASME standard for a dimension that has one end off the view.
