Long answer: no.

There are some workarounds, like using scripts.

And there are plug-ins:

CADtools

VectorScribe

Both can do dimension lines, even in scale.

Has anyone tried Doug Habbens' plugin mentioned above?

The Worker 72a Dimensions plugin.

Would love to hear feedback on this.

Thanks !

I cooked up a Mac version plug-in that adds dimensions for selected art in inches, cm or mm. If you'd like to try out a beta version, drop me a line at info(at)worker72a.com.

Try clicking on the ? item above (a workaround to allow downloading scripts), and then change the .jpg to .jsx for a script.

    I'm not sure if that is a reliable workaround to provide .jsx files, Mike.

    At least I don't see the ? item you mentioned and when I click the link above nothing happens.

    (Using the latest version of Firefox)

    Kurt,

    It worked by clicking on the box and dragging it to the desktop. When renamed with the .jsx extension, it opens in the ESTK.

      Thanks Monica,

      I'm running a trial version of VectorScribe right now and love it. Thanks for the help.
