In hsCADCreator, a radial dimension entity consists of the following data in addition to the Entity Common Data and the Dimension Common Data:

Property Name	Data Type	Description
Text Override	Text	<> means no override. Change this value to display desired text instead of measured distance.
Rotate Text	Scientific Data	Rotation of dimension's text.
Center Point	3D Point (X, Y, Z coordinates)	Center point of arc, ellipse, circle.
Chord Point	3D Point (X, Y, Z coordinates)	Point on circumference of arc, ellipse, circle.
Offset Point	3D Point (X, Y, Z coordinates)	Point for text offset in the radial dimension.
Leader Length	Scientific Data	Length of leader line.
Start Angle	Scientific Data	Start angle for dimensions arc.
End Angle	Scientific Data	End angle for the dimensions arc.

In hsCADCreator the above properties are shown in the Selection Property Tree when a radial dimension entity is selected using the Selection Tool.
