The ld macro adds a linear dimension to your pattern.
It is provided by plugin-annotations, which is part of core-plugins (so it is available by default).

Number d,
String id = 'ld',

Boolean force = false,
})
Example
Configuration
| Property | Default | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
from | Point | The startpoint of the dimension | |
to | Point | The endpoint of the dimension | |
d | 0 | Number | The offset at which to draw the dimension |
id | ld | string | The ID of this macro instance |
text | Linear distance | Number | The text to go on the dimension if not the from-to linear distance |
noStartMarker | false | Boolean | Whether to not draw a start marker |
noEndMarker | false | Boolean | Whether to not draw an end marker |

Notes
This macro takes the paperless setting into account and won’t output anything when both paperless and force are false.
