Tutorial Tuesday Tip - Dimensioning

Post by Stephanie Downing »

It's Tutorial Tuesday and today we are looking at the awesome Dimensions Tool!

This tool allows you to add a variety of dimensioning annotations to your vector drawing, including length, height, width, angle or the radius or diameter of an arc.

This tip is appropriate to ALL core products

Hi Highpockets.

We're looking at the issue, if you refresh the page are you seeing the same error message?

Thanks

Hi Michael,

Thanks for letting us know. We have changed the link to the Instagram one instead of Facebook. Does this work better in Chrome for you?

Thanks
Stephanie

Yes, that works! But...the right side of the video is truncated when playing, unless I make the video full-screen. Then all is well!

EDIT: I think I am mistaken...the video may have simply been zoomed-in making me THINK the screen was cut-off at the right. I believe it is ok after all.

When I posted there was no video on the post just a line saying "Facebook SDK error..." as John posted. Seems ok now.
