Poor overall performance from Onshape Drawings, can't seem to Dimension from Arc to Edge, Reference Lines don't help either

@devon_sowell , User can give dimension from arc to edge as shown in below video.


Onshape introduces drawing recently. Day by day its performance is improving and it is better than other CAD software when their drawing was in initial release. In future we hope that Onshape will definitely improve there performance.

@ devon_sowell , You can give dimension between from Arc point to Edge by 2 point Linear dimension method.But you can't get that dimension by radial dimension.
Yes there some smart dimension option is missing at this point of time. We can expect that option in future updates.

Hmmm ... @viru, I think that's a special case you're showing, where the linear edge happens to lie perpendicular to the selectable points on the circular edge.
It is not applicable to the general case where this may not be true, and is particularly risky in the case where the edge is almost but not exactly perpendicular.
