Abstract
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture provide for displaying dimensioning for a data object. A data object to be dimensioned is displayed.

A computer-implemented method for displaying dimensioning for a data object comprising:
- displaying a data object to be dimensioned;
- creating dimensioning for the data object in accordance with a dimensioning rule, wherein the dimensioning rule is pre-defined to determine how points of the data object are to be dimensioned;
- and
- displaying said dimensioning.
A computer-implemented system for displaying dimensioning for a data object comprising:
- means, performed by the computer system for displaying a data object to be dimensioned;
- means, performed by the computer system, for creating dimensioning for the data object in accordance with a dimensioning rule, wherein the dimensioning rule is pre-defined to determine how points of the data object are to be dimensioned;
- and
- means, performed by the computer system, for displaying said dimensioning.
