Hello

If the marked dimensions are located on a separate layer, you may easily filter them off using the following code. If they are not, you will have to find another property that distinguishes these dimensions from other objects.

Code: Select all

using CADImport;
using System.Collections.Generic;
...

var cadDimensions = cadImage.CurrentLayout.Entities.FindAll(ent => ent.EntType == EntityType.Dimension);
var cadDimensionsOnLayer = cadDimensions.FindAll(dim => dim.Layer.Name == "SomeLayer");
