    Hi,

    How can I get the coordinates of the start- and endpoint of a dimension?

    ExtLine1Point and ExtLine2Point perhaps?

    No that's not the answer, because I'm using AcadDimension, for AcadDimAligned you're right.

    Frank,

    Here's a hint: Dimensions are blocks. However, it is an arduous task to get at the various dimension properties.

    Yep! You cn try vbdesign.net and see if they still have the tutorial on
    determining the dimension blocks name and how to iterate through it.
    There was some discussion a while back that this method was flawed but I
    haven't had any problems with it.
