Patent attributes
An example computing system is configured to (i) generate a cross-sectional view of a three-dimensional drawing file; (ii) receive a first user input indicating a selection of a first mesh, wherein the selection comprises a selection point that establishes a first end point; (iii) generate a first representation indicating an alignment of the first end point with at least one corresponding geometric feature of the first mesh and a second representation indicating a set of one or more directions; (iv) receive a second user input indicating a given direction; (v) based on receiving the second user input, generate a dynamic representation of the dimensioning information along the given direction; (vi) receive a third user input indicating that the second user input is complete; (vii) based on receiving the third user input, add the dimensioning information to the cross-sectional view between the first end point and the second end point.
