Dimension breaks can be added to linear, angular and ordinate dimensions, among others. **Command Access:** > **Icon:** ![](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2027/assets/e2f2cbd2d7c7f302fbc510a8129bce52a8f7442c93fecc91696190d62d4bc5b4.png) > **Menu:** Dimension > Dimension Break > **Ribbon:** Annotation > Dimension > Dimbreak > **Toolbar:** Dimension > Dimension Break > **Command:** DIMBREAK > **Alias:** / **Command Prompts:** ``` Select dimension to add/remove break or [Multiple]: ``` ![](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2027/assets/f855f8d892c593207005a57144779a07696a8b67b6c92a16dc058b4fd37dff69.jpg) ## Select Dimension Specifies a dimension or multileader object. ## Select Object Specifies an object that intersects the dimension or leader object. The result makes space on either side of the intersecting object. Any dimension break created using this option is updated automatically when the dimension or an intersecting object is modified. ## Multiple Specifies multiple dimensions to add breaks to or remove breaks from. ## **Auto** Automatically places dimension breaks at all the intersection points of the objects that intersect the selected dimension. Any dimension break created using this option is updated automatically when the dimension or an intersecting object is modified. ## **Remove** Removes all dimension breaks from the selected dimensions. ## **Manual** Places a dimension break manually. Specifies two points on the dimension, extension or leader line for the location of the break. --- **Related References:** - [Commands about Basic Dimensioning (GstarCAD 2026)](../../2026/Commands/00%20Command%20Groups/Commands%20about%20Basic%20Dimensioning.md) **Related Concepts:** - [About the Types of Dimensions (GstarCAD 2026)](../../2026/Commands/About%20the%20Types%20of%20Dimensions.md) **Related Tasks:** - [To Create Linear Dimensions (GstarCAD 2026)](../../2026/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Linear%20Dimensions.md) - [To Create Radial Dimensions (GstarCAD 2026)](../../2026/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Radial%20Dimensions.md) - [To Create Angular Dimensions (GstarCAD 2026)](../../2026/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Angular%20Dimensions.md) - [To Create Arc Length Dimensions (GstarCAD 2026)](../../2026/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20Arc%20Length%20Dimensions.md) - [To Create a Dimension Break Manually (GstarCAD 2026)](../../2026/Commands/01%20Procedures/To%20Create%20a%20Dimension%20Break%20Manually.md) --- [Original help](https://www.gstarcad.net/help/GstarCAD_2027_en-US/detail/commandReferences/DIMBREAK.html) · © Gstarsoft Co., Ltd.
