PrimeCut can automatically apply dimensions to parts which have a single external closed path.
PrimeCut dimensions
•width and height of the part
•The length of several of the longest edges
•hole and slot diameters
•Hole center distances to the edges
•A list of hole and slot sizes
•Optionally hole Pitch Vectors (the center to center distance between a pair of similar holes)
•Optionally Edge Vectors (the distance from the hole edge to the edge of the part, a useful quantity easy to measure at the machine when checking parts after they have been cut)
Parts can be automatically Auto-Dimensioned on import also. (Parts with existing drawn dimensions are not Auto-Dimensioned automatically). See the options in the User Settings, Geometry tab.
