Definition point for diameter, radius, and angular dimensions (in WCS)
Optional
colorA 24-bit color value that should be dealt with in terms of bytes with values of 0 to 255. The lowest byte is the blue value, the middle byte is the green value, and the third byte is the red value. The top byte is always 0. The group code cannot be used by custom entities for their own data because the group code is reserved for AcDbEntity, class-level color data and AcDbEntity, class-level transparency data
Optional
colorColor number (present if not BYLAYER); zero indicates the BYBLOCK (floating) color; 256 indicates BYLAYER; a negative value indicates that the layer is turned off (optional)
Optional
colorColor name. The group code cannot be used by custom entities for their own data because the group code is reserved for AcDbEntity, class-level color data and AcDbEntity, class-level transparency data
Definition point (in WCS)
Dimension type: Values 0-6 are integer values that represent the dimension type. Values 32, 64, and 128 are bit values, which are added to the integer values (value 32 is always set in R13 and later releases)
Optional
extrusionExtrusion direction (optional; default = 0, 0, 1)
Handle
Optional
isAbsent or zero indicates entity is in model space. 1 indicates entity is in paper space (optional).
Optional
isObject visibility (optional):
Layer name
Leader length for radius and diameter dimensions
Optional
lineLinetype name (present if not BYLAYER). The special name BYBLOCK indicates a floating linetype (optional)
Optional
lineLinetype scale (optional)
Optional
lineweightLineweight enum value. Stored and moved around as a 16-bit integer.
Optional
materialHard-pointer ID/handle to material object (present if not BYLAYER)
Optional
measurementActual measurement (optional; read-only value)
Name of the block that contains the entities that make up the dimension picture
Optional
ocsThe horizontal direction for the dimension entity. The dimension entity determines the orientation of dimension text and lines for horizontal, vertical, and rotated linear dimensions This group value is the negative of the angle between the OCS X axis and the UCS X axis. It is always in the XY plane of the OCS.
Soft-pointer ID/handle to owner BLOCK_RECORD object
Optional
ownerHard-owner ID/handle to owner dictionary (optional)
Optional
ownerSoft-pointer ID/handle to owner dictionary (optional)
Optional
plotHard-pointer ID/handle to the plot style object
Optional
proxyNumber of bytes in the proxy entity graphics represented in the subsequent 310 groups, which are binary chunk records (optional)
Optional
proxyProxy entity graphics data (multiple lines; 256 characters max. per line) (optional)
Optional
shadowShadow mode
Note: Starting with AutoCAD 2016-based products, this property is obsolete but still supported for backwards compatibility.
Dimension style name
Subclass marker (AcDbRadialDimension or AcDbDiametricDimension)
Optional
textDimension text explicitly entered by the user. Optional; default is the measurement. If null or “<>”, the dimension measurement is drawn as the text, if ““ (one blank space), the text is suppressed. Anything else is drawn as the text
Optional
textDimension text-line spacing factor (optional): Percentage of default (3-on-5) line spacing to be applied. Valid values range from 0.25 to 4.00
Optional
textDimension text line-spacing style (optional):
Middle point of dimension text (in OCS)
Optional
textThe rotation angle of the dimension text away from its default orientation (the direction of the dimension line) (optional)
Optional
transparencyTransparency value. The group code cannot be used by custom entities for their own data because the group code is reserved for AcDbEntity, class-level color data and AcDbEntity, class-level transparency data

xdataThe extension dictionary attached to the entity (optional).
