Obviously I did not look at it long enough and made a few mistakes.
Bemating is dimensioning.
Vlak is plane
Having looked at the relevant page of the helpfile for a while I think that
the whole thing is illogical and maybe best ignored. There was probably a
typo in the original text
It would make sense to me if one assumed that the words "curve" and "lijn"
were superimposed e.g

/ Point /Curve
Geometry/_____ Line/
\ \ Arc
\ Plane


/ Text / Linear
Annotaion/_____Dimensioning /____ Angular
\ \
\ Ole- Object \Radial

And further down the page,if the line :" Where a reference is made to
geometry then it concerns points and curves" was replaced with: " Where a
reference is made to geometry then it concerns points,lines and planes."

I was born and educated in Holland but have lived in Australia for more then
30 years and rarely have to translate anything. Translating technical
literature is diabolically difficult. Usually it is easier to start writing
manuals from the ground up in whatever language.

Disagree.French and English have more simularities than Dutch and German and
I would hate
to say that they indistinquishable.
