What do you mean by overlap dimension?

For examble one dimension overlap with

another dimension or dimension arrow (Added image for example)

Are your engineers using Snap Lines in the drawing?   If they lock the dimensions to the snap lines they will  always maintain their spacing and avoid overlap.   In the image the snap lines are the dashed lines.  They do not show up in prints/exports.

main purpose of the automation tool is to avoid manual errors...

If the user forget to use snaplines or snapline gap is not enough to maintain its gap this overlap will happens,...

thats why i am looking for toolkit program to identify overlap dimensions in drawing view

Pro/Toolkit functions will give you 2D locations of various entities composing a detail dimension. From there one would need to build a 2D region map and to analyze it using GIS and/or CV algorithms - there are numerous cpp libraries for that.

So, you are saying, need to collect all dimensions with their location. then we have to check overlap by their location. Is that correct
