ORDINAT allows you to create and edit ordinate dimensions.
All ordinate dimensions can be created on a horizontal,
vertical or parallel axis using alignment or non-alignment
assignments. Once these dimensions are established, they
can be added to, moved, deleted, or aligned while still
keeping their original characteristics.

Choose an ordinate dimension option from the displayed 
menu.

CREATE - to choose to align or not align the ordinate
         dimensions to be created and whether you want to
         dimension HORIZTL, VERTICL, or PARALEL axis.

MODIFY - to choose whether you want to ADD TO, MOVE,
         ALIGN, or REMOVE the ordinate dimensions.

Within the DIM MOD switch set to AUTOMAT, the dimension is
calculated automatically.

With the DIM MOD switch set to MANUAL, the on-line text
editor is activated and you are prompted to enter the
dimension text.

To end the text input, choose the SAVE TX (save text)
option.

Dimensioning is done when all three positions are
designated. Witness lines, leaders, text, and arrows
are drawn according to the current settings.
