Entering dimensions in Autocad is a simple process. There are two main methods of entering dimensions:
When you are drawing a line, you will notice that there are two small boxes on either side of the screen. If you have not yet entered any dimensions, then these boxes will show the current distance between these points. When you want to enter a dimension for your line, simply type it into one of these boxes and hit enter or click on one of them with your mouse.
This section will help you learn how to change your dimension style settings.
