Dimensioning Arcs
The Dimensioning tool also lets you add dimension labels to arcs, not just straight edges. Follow these steps:1. Click the Start Using SketchUp button.
2. Select the Arc tool.
3. Draw an arc.
4. From the Large Tool Set select the Dimensioning tool (open the Large Tool Set from the View menu if necessary).
5. Click the arc. The Dimensioning tool displays the radius of the arc, prefixed by the letter R.
6. Click the center of the arc to fix the dimension label in place. You can see what this looks like in Figure 10.4.

That’s it—now you can add dimensioning labels to an arc.
