Dimensions define the size and measured relationships that control sketch geometry. Use them to set linear spacing, angular values, and curved sizes so the sketch can regenerate to explicit design intent instead of relying on manual placement.
Dimensions turn sketch placement into measured design intent
This section covers the primary sketch dimensions used in Zoo Design Studio: Distance, Angle, Radius, and Diameter.
Distance dimensions control spacing between points, lines, and other sketch entities. Angle dimensions define measured rotation between lines. Radius and diameter dimensions control the size of arcs and circles without redrawing the underlying geometry.
Distance dimensions can be applied directly to a line to control its length, or between two points or references to control their spacing. Double-click an existing distance, angle, radius, or diameter dimension label to edit its value.
If a sketch becomes over-constrained, Zoo Design Studio highlights the conflicting sketch geometry or dimension in red. Remove or edit one of the competing dimensions or constraints to loosen the sketch until it can solve again.
Curved dimensions control circles and arcs from their center references
