I'm a graphics teacher trying to get to grips with AutoCAD 2002 LT. How can I get a dimension displayed as a diameter without the object being dimensioned being a circle? I know it sounds peculiar, but if I have a cylinder which shows a circle in the plan view, but a rectangle in the elevation view. I want to show the dimension as a diameter on the elevation. Sorry if that is a bit convoluted. Davy M
