Working with Text 101
Click where you want to start the dimension line (e.g., on a connection
point), then drag and release the mouse button where you want to end the
line (maybe on another connection point). The illustrations below show the
result of dragging between connection points A and B.
A pair of parallel extension lines
appears from the two points.
Between the two extension lines,
the dimension line and its label
"float." Click the blue line box to
position the floating line and
label; drag the red circle within.
Release when the line and label
are where you want them. (You
can always change the positions
later.) Click away to reveal the
dimension line.

For an angular dimension, click the
Angular Dimension tool
then click on a point along one side of the desired angle, then drag
and release the mouse button at a point along the other side of the
angle (points A and B in the illustration below). Click again at the
vertex of the angle (point C below). These three points define the
starting and ending sides of the angle. Between the two sides, the
angle's arc and its label "float," awaiting final positioning. Click again
to position the floating elements.
Angles are measured anti-clockwise from the starting to the ending
side, so choose your three nodes accordingly.
