Question

How can i tell in my java program if a Dimension2D in a Drawing is a Basic dimension?

If I use the Properties UI to set a dimension2D as a Basic dimension how then can I find this Basic Dimension2D using the jlink API?

 

As an example, if a Dimension2D is set to be a Reference dimension then i can use the Dimension2D.GetIsReference() method to find Reference dimension.

 

I can not find an equivalent function for Basic dimensions, but i can imagine that i am not looking for it properly.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Tnx in advance!
