# DIM Command [GstarCAD 2023](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Index.md) → [Commands](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/(Commands).md) → [D](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/D/(D).md) ## Function Description: This command is used to access command in dimension mode. In the DIM mode, users can use a special set of commands. When using DIM command, it will not stop prompting to input dimension commands; but using DIM1 command, it will immediately return back to command prompt after executing one dimension command. To exit dimension mode, users need to input "e", "exit" or press ESC to exit. ## Command Access: > **Icon:** / > **Menu:** / > **Ribbon:** / > **Toolbar:** / > **Command:** DIM > **Alias:** / **Command Prompts: /** The following commands are equivalent to commands in dimension mode. | | | | --- | --- | | Dimensioning mode Command | Equivalent Command | | ALIGNED | [DIMALIGNED](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMALIGNED.md) | | ANGULAR | [DIMANGULAR](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMANGULAR.md) | | BASELINE | [DIMBASELINE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMBASELINE.md) | | CENTER | [DIMCENTER](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMCENTER.md) | | CONTINUE | [DIMCONTINUE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMCONTINUE.md) | | DIAMETER | [DIMDIAMETER](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMDIAMETER.md) | | HOMETEXT | [DIMEDIT](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMEDIT.md) home | | HORIZONTAL | [DIMLINEAR](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMLINEAR.md) Horizontal | | LEADER | [LEADER](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/L/LEADER.md) | | NEWTEXT | [DIMEDIT](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMEDIT.md) New | | OBLIQUE | [DIMEDIT](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMEDIT.md) Oblique | | ORDINATE | [DIMORDINATE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMORDINATE.md) | | OVERRIDE | [DIMOVERRIDE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMOVERRIDE.md) | | RADIUS | [DIMRADIUS](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMRADIUS.md) | | RESTORE | -[DIMSTYLE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMSTYLE--9f0a2a43c8.md) Restore | | ROTATED | [DIMLINEAR](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMLINEAR.md) Rotated | | SAVE | [-DIMSTYLE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMSTYLE--9f0a2a43c8.md) Save | | STATUS | [-DIMSTYLE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMSTYLE--9f0a2a43c8.md) Status | | TEDIT | [DIMTEDIT](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMTEDIT.md) | | TROTATE | [DIMEDIT](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMEDIT.md) Rotate | | UPDATE | [-DIMSTYLE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMSTYLE--9f0a2a43c8.md) Apply | | VARIABLES | [-DIMSTYLE](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMSTYLE--9f0a2a43c8.md) Variables | | VERTICAL | [DIMLINEAR](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/DIMLINEAR.md) Vertical | --- **Related References：** - [Commands about Basic Dimensioning](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/00%20Command%20Groups/Commands%20about%20Basic%20Dimensioning.md) **Related Concepts：** - [About the Types of Dimensions](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/02%20Concepts/About%20the%20Types%20of%20Dimensions.md) **Related Tasks：** - [To Create Linear Dimensions](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Linear%20Dimensions.md) - [To Create Radial Dimensions](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Radial%20Dimensions.md) - [To Create Angular Dimensions](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Angular%20Dimensions.md) - [To Create Arc Length Dimensions](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2023/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Arc%20Length%20Dimensions.md) --- [Original help](https://www.gstarcad.net/help/GstarCAD_2023_en-US/detail/commandReferences/DIM.html) · © Gstarsoft Co., Ltd.
