//! AIS_Dimension is a base class for 2D presentations of linear (length, diameter, radius)
//! and angular dimensions.
//!
//! The dimensions provide measurement of quantities, such as lengths or plane angles.
//! The measurement of dimension "value" is done in model space "as is".
//! These "value" are said to be represented in "model units", which can be specified by user.
//! During the display the measured value converted from "model units" to "display units".
//! The display and model units are stored in common Prs3d_Drawer (drawer of the context)
//! to share it between all dimensions.
//! The specified by user units are stored in the dimension's drawer.
//!
//! As a drawing, the dimension is composed from the following components:
//! - Attachment (binding) points. The points where the dimension lines attaches to, for
//!   length dimensions the distances are measured between these points.
//! - Main dimension line. The which extends from the attachment points in "up" direction,
//!   and which contains text label on it with value string.
//! - Flyouts. The lines connecting the attachment points with main dimension line.
//! - Extension. The lines used to extend the main dimension line in the cases when text
//!   or arrows do not fit into the main dimension line due to their size.
//! - Arrows.

//!
//! Being a 2D drawings, the dimensions are created on imaginary plane, called "dimension plane",
//! which can be thought of as reference system of axes (X,Y,N) for constructing the presentation.
//!
//! The role of axes of the dimension plane is to guide you through the encapsualted automations
//! of presentation building to help you understand how is the presentation will look and how it
//! will be oriented in model space during construction.
//! 
//! Orientation of dimension line in model space relatively to the base shapes is defined 
//! with the flyouts. Flyouts specify length of flyout lines and their orientation relatively
//! to the attachment points on the working plane.
//! For linear dimensions: 
//!   Direction of flyouts is specified with direction of main dimension line
//!   (vector from the first attachment to the second attachment) and the normal of the dimension plane.
//!   Positive direction of flyouts is defined by vector multiplication: AttachVector * PlaneNormal.
//! For angular dimensions:
//!   Flyouts are defined by vectors from the center point to the attachment points.
//!   These vectors directions are supposed to be the positive directions of flyouts.
//!   Negative flyouts directions means that these vectors should be reversed
//!   (and dimension will be built out of the angle constructed with center and two attach points).
//!
//! The dimension plane can be constructed automatically by application (where possible,
//! it depends on the measured geometry).
//! It can be also set by user. However, if the user-defined plane does not fit the
//! geometry of the dimension (attach points do not belong to it), the dimension could not
//! be built.
//! If it is not possible to compute automatic plane (for example, in case of length between 
//! two points) the user is supposed to specify the custom plane.
//!
//! Since the dimensions feature automated construction procedures from an arbitrary shapes,
//! the interfaces to check the validness are also implemented. Once the measured geometry is
//! specified, the one can inquire the validness status by calling "IsValid()" method. If the result
//! is TRUE, then all of public parameters should be pre-computed and ready. The presentation
//! should be also computable. Otherwise, the parameters may return invalid values. In this case,
//! the presentation will not be computed and displayed.
//! 
//! The dimension support two local selection modes: main dimension line selection and text label
//! selection. These modes can be used to develop interactive modification of dimension presentations.
//! The component highlighting in these selection modes is provided by AIS_DimensionOwner class.
//! Please note that selection is unavailable until the presentation is computed.
//! 
//! The specific drawing attributes are controlled through Prs3d_DimensionAspect. The one can change
//! color, arrows, text and arrow style and specify positioning of value label by setting corresponding
//! values to the aspect.
//!
//! Such set of parameters that consists of:
//! - flyout size and direction,
//! - user-defined  dimension plane,
//! - horizontal and vertical text alignment
//! can be uniquely replaced with text position in 3d space. Therefore, there are methods to convert
//! this set of parameters to the text position and vice versa:
//!
//! - If the fixed text position is defined by user, called SetTextPosition (theTextPos) method converts
//! this 3d point to the set of parameters including adjusting of the dimension plane (this plane will be
//! automatic plane, NOT user-defined one).
//! If the fixed text position is set, the flag myIsFixedTextPosition is set to TRUE.
//! ATTENSION! myIsFixedTextPosition fixes all parameters of the set from recomputing inside
//! SetMeasureGeometry() methods. Parameters in dimension aspect (they are horizontal text position
//! and extension size) are adjusted on presentation computing step, user-defined values in
//! dimension aspect are not changed.
//! But plane and flyout as dimension position parameters are changed by SetTextPosition() method
//! according with user-defined text position.
//! If parameters from the set are changed by user with calls of setters, it leads to disabling of
//! fixed text position (myIsFixedTextPosition is set to FALSE).
//! If the fixed text position is set and geometry is changed by user (SetMeasureGeometry() method
//! is called) and the geometry doesn't satisfy computed dimension plane, the dimension is not valid.
//!
//! - If the set of parameters was set by user (may be without the user-defined plane or with it),
//! it can be converted to the text position by calling the method GetTextPosition(). In this case
//! the text position is NOT fixed, and SetMeasureGeometry() without user-defined plane adjusts
//! the automatic plane according input geometry (if it is possible).
