Radial Dimensions display the value of the radius of a curved element.
Radial dimensions have two main parts: the Dimension (pointer) Line and the text.

Click on a point of the curved element.

Draw the dimension line, either toward the centerpoint of the curve or in the opposite direction. The radial dimension must always originate from a curved element.

3.

Click again to place the text, which shows the value of the radius.

Text orientation can be defined in Radial Dimension Settings.

You can adjust a placed radial dimension with the aid of the pet palette:
