Function Description:
This command is used to create jogged dimensions for selected circles and arcs.
DIMJOGGED measures the radius of the selected object and displays the dimension
text with a radius symbol in front of it. The origin point of the dimension line
can be specified at any convenient location.
When the center of a circle or an arc is located outside of the layout and can not
be displayed in its actual position, users can create jogged radius dimension
for it. The origin point of the dimension can be specified at a more convenient
location called the center location override.
