Hello everbody,I'm here for the first time, and I hope you can help me to solve my problem.I need a way to dimension an arc, but on more points, for example were a curved wall intersects with some other object, or so.Standard dimarc gives you arc length of only one segment, but I have complete walls to dimension.Basically, it should work like a dimcontinuous command, but on an arc.Both Revit and Archicad have such posibility.Is there a way to do it in autocad ?Thanks in advance, I would really appreciate some help around this, because I have a project to finish, and I don't know how to do this.bye

Not with the internal commands. You can try the attached LISP utility containing the DimArcCont and DimArcCont1 commands.
 
The first one works with the standard DIMARC command, the second makes its own arc dimensioning. Just APPLOAD the utility and start one of the new commands.
