Sign the length of the perpendicular from object to object

ic_0095 This mode is used to create a signature for the length of the perpendicular between the user-specified map objects. To form a signature, the user must sequentially select two objects on the map. When you select each of the objects, the cursor should be positioned as close as possible to those points of the object metric, the distance between which you need to sign.

The point on a piece of the metric of the first object, the nearest to the cursor at the moment of a choice, is used for calculating the first point of a dimensional line. The piece of the metric of the second object, the nearest to the cursor, is used for construction of perpendicular. The program automatically builds a perpendicular from the point of the first object to the straight line passing through the  piece of the second object. Depending on the shape and mutual arrangement of objects, the dimension line may not fall on the metric of the second object.

For the constructed dimension line, the program calculates the length and forms its signature. The code for the signature to be created is specified in the editor parameters. The signature is formed with the simultaneous creation of a linear object - a dimension line.
