How can I put a hole in a beam? Is it possible?
Also, I draw an arc in a S/E. Where in the heck can I find out what the radius is?Radial dimension tool is not working for you? And you can place the origin at the center, rest on the arc, and read the 'r' box. If you are trying to get the radius of an arc'd element in elevation, such as an arch, it won't work, since the curve is made of segments. You'll have to draw an an arc over the curve and take the radius of that.

I was looking for a place where I could see the radius and change it all at the same time.

However, am unable to dim the radius of the arc in S/E using the radial dim. Any suggestions there?
