Dimension a curved line

Anonymous
Not applicable
i have drawn a curved wall that has curved windows. is there any way to dimension the windows? I have come across radial dimensions but not really used them. Not sure if this is the right thing or not? Linear dimensions don't seem to give an option for curved? I guess if there is nothing I will have to draw a curved line and use that as a dimension line.

Have a look on the geometry method for the linear dimension.
You will see an option for 'Arc Length'.

When thinking of how you want to dimension this think of how will the builder build it, I have never seen a curved measuring tape!
