MeP:Transform R-Dimension on Ø Construction Line

Hello team,

 

On a cross-sectional view of a cylinder , I dimension a theoretical radius with respect to the construction line which represents the axis of revolution.

I would like to transform this dimension into a diameter dimension (that the 7.46 becomes Ø14.92) without having to make a manual modification of the value. Without having fun making broken cuts to recover the other point which is at 120° (you will see better on the picture).

I find myself in this situation almost all the time so I would like to quote in this way to lighten the plan and my process without breaking the rating links, because in case of modification for sure it will be forgotten ...

A solution?

Thank you!

Hello 

Maybe by replacing the axis with a sketched construction line > make an ordinary dimension > select the diameter type > add the diameter symbol > then follow this tutorial of @obiwan.
