3D dimension lines plugin
This plugin brings to SH3D the capability to draw 3D dimension lines that will snap to floors, walls and ceilings, directly in the 3D view. This could be useful to give precise directives to installers.

In order to use this plugin you have to install Pan3dView plugin version 1.7 or later.
Please note that this plugin conflicts with the Wirings plugin versions prior to 1.2; if you are using it be sure to update to the latest version.

The plugin comes with an integrated user guide available in english and italian under the Help > Draw3D dimension lines help menu, please take a moment to read it to learn how to use the plugin.

Features
  • dimensions can be placed on floors, walls and ceilings;
  • the measurement can be done in any direction, not necessarily the same of the endpoints;
  • dimensions can be edited after they have been placed;
  • intelligent snap cursor: snaps to other dimensions' endpoints, and wall corners;
  • measurement labels can be correctly seen from both sides, i.e. from above or below in case of ceilings, and from back in case of transparent walls. (1)
