Question
how can i dimension an arc with its angle on above dimension line and arc length below it (all should be automatic no editing)

Answer
I think to do it in this fashion you would have to write a LISP. See the previous answer. I would look in van Doorn's material to see if he has the exact answer. Sorry I could not be more specific.

Jos van Doorn. Has written many AutoCAD articles. Find
