Abstract
A method for creating a dimensioning object for at least one data object, wherein both the dimensioning object and the data object are displayable on a display device as graphical objects. Dimensioning rules (that have been pre-defined for the data object) are applied to determine a dimensioning object for the data object. The dimensioning object for the data object to be dimensioned is displayed on the display device wherein the dimensioning object is determined by the dimensioning rules. The dimensioning object is stored with the data object.
