Three-dimensional CAD attribute information presentation

An information processing method of an information processing apparatus for displaying characters of a dimensions of a 3D object with a first frame and a second frame com, comprising steps of:

• Setting a plane intersecting a 3D space, wherein the plane is indicated by the first frame surrounding the 3D object, and characters of dimensions of the 3D object are placed on the plane, wherein the characters of dimensions of the 3D object are associated with the first frame;
• Setting the second frame on the set plane so as to indicate the existence of the characters of the dimensions of a small part of the 3D object, wherein characters of the dimensions of a small part associated with the second frame are smaller than the characters associated with the first frame;
• and
• Displaying the 3D object with the set plane, the first frame, the set second frame, and the characters of the dimension of a small part on the set plane in the same 3D space.

A computer executable program product with a computer program tangibly embodied on a computer readable storage device, comprising:

• Plane setting means for setting a plane that intersects a 3D space, wherein the plane is indicated by the first frame surrounding the 3D object, and characters of dimensions of the 3D object are placed on the plane, wherein the characters of dimensions of the 3D object are associated with the first frame;
• Frame setting means for setting the second frame on the set plane so as to indicate the existence of the characters of the dimensions of a small part of the 3D object, wherein characters of the dimensions of a small part of the 3D object associated with the second frame are smaller than the characters associated with the first frame;
• and
• Display means for displaying the 3D object with the set plane, the first frame, the set second frame, and the characters of the dimension of a small part on the set plane in the same 3D space.
