Select continued dimension: Select a linear, ordinate, or angular dimension
Otherwise, the program skips this prompt and uses the dimension object that
was last created in the current session. If the base dimension is linear or
angular, the following prompt is displayed:
Specify a
second extension line origin or [Undo/Select] <Select>: Specify a point,
enter an option, or press Enter to select a base dimension
If the base dimension is ordinate, the following prompt is displayed:
Specify
feature location or [Undo/Select] <Select>:
To end the command, press Enter twice, or press Esc. The current dimension
style determines the appearance of the text.
Second Extension Line Origin Uses the second extension line origin of the
continued dimension for the first extension line origin of the next dimension.
The current dimension style determines the appearance of the text.
After you select a continued dimension, the Specify a Second Extension Line
Origin prompt is redisplayed. To end the command, press Esc. To select another
linear, ordinate, or angular dimension to use as the basis for the continued
dimension, press Enter.
Select continued dimension: Select a linear, ordinate, or angular dimension
Select a base dimension, or press Esc to end the command.
Feature Location Uses the endpoint of the base dimension as the endpoint
for the continued dimension; you are prompted for the next feature location.
When you select a feature location, the continued dimension is drawn and
the Specify Feature Location prompt is redisplayed. To end the command,
press Esc. To select another linear, ordinate, or angular dimension to use as
the basis for the continued dimension, press Enter.
Select continued dimension: Select a linear, ordinate, or angular dimension
