Numerical Edit
The Numerical Edit tool creates an edit box for editing numerical values, including interactive
numbers or measurements. Interactive numbers can be modified interactively and used to define
rotations, dilations, or measurement transfer values. The edit box contains pull-down menus that
allow you to specify the attributes of the text.
Attribute defaults for font, size, and style of the text can be set using the Font , Size , and Style
commands in the Options menu (Macintosh only).
