• three dimensioned views and one undimensioned pictorial view, each in its own file
• stacked dimensions with extension lines
• leader lines for the hole sizes
• titleblock0 and revblock0
• a dot grid on a 17 × 11 sheet

Don Smiley

A slotted disc 400 units across, drawn with SCALING_FACTOR = 100. It shows:

• how a large part needs a large scale; see Configuration
• vertical dimensions made by rotating dimensions()
• leader lines for radii
• titleblock1

Both sheet examples follow the file layout described in Workflow.
