EDim is a professional 3ds Max plugin that allows you to create stunning 3D dimensions in seconds. It supports multiple selection and color changing, and can be linked to your original object. You can control the dimensions’ renderability and put them in a separate layer. EDim also offers three different dynamic sizes that will always fit your original object size.
