command 'Dim' doesn't work

[Anonymous]

hello,

I have some problems with the Dim command.

when I type dim, I can't click anywere to measure something and it doesn't show any snapping symbols.

the command line says: 'Dim Dim', but i remember it saying something like 'Dim: define the first point' or something like that?

also my cursor doesn't show the question mark after i typed the command as it normaly would.

Thank you for helping me out

Simon

sorry, wrong command, should've been dist.

So do you need any assistance, or does the DIST command solve it?

yes, the Dist command solved my problem.

We had been working on a school project for 2 days and i was a bit tired I guess 🙂

Try the command " dimlin " for linear dimensions

and " dimang " for angular dimension...instead using the command " dim"

this should work! 🙂
