Anonymous
Not applicable
i think i know the answer to this, but i am fairly new to Archicad. can i use this tool on a single curve or arc, that has two or more different radius?

Each radius will need to have an individually assigned radial dimension.

The "Radial Dimension" Tool will not work on one curve element with multiple centers (like and ellipse).

. . . but will work on a polyline with multiple curves. now if only there was a way to explode an ellipse . . .

I guess you could "Magic Wand" the ellipse with a polyline curve - then delete the ellipse.
