Hello!

I have very simple but struggling problem. I can't see the length of the lines. I tried a lot of options concerning dimensions but the dimensions are not visible for me at all.
Where can I find the option that can show me the length of the particular line or group of lines? In some programs, I could find the table that showed the lines parameters i.e. length, orientation (x,y) and so on. Does nanoCAD posses such a function? Where are the lengths displayed?

My program looks like that:

High,
I have a similar problem but that is not solved by showing the properties.
It just does not show the dimension line itself. In another NanoCAD drawing it does?

in the command line type "dist" then select a first and second point and you will see the distance xyz between them.

For not seeing dims check your settings. If you are doing kilometers and text height is 25mm then you won't see them.

If you are not seeing dimension lines at all are you sure you have the dimensions layer unfrozen and visible? Dimensions are automatically created on the dimensions layer even if you have a different layer as the current active layer.
