Create dimension using arcpy

[Khalid_Elejla]

How, can I create dimensions using arcpy

I was able to create polygons for example, but when it comes to dimensions I can't figure the right inputs to the class

Also, I found out that there is a class called arcpy. Dimension but it looks like it's empty compari g to polygon, polyline or point class

Geometry construction is found in the help topics

Geometry—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

and there are links for Polygon, polyline etc.

What type of "dimension" are you referring to if it is no a spatial dimension? time?

Thanks, Dan.

I am referring to the dimension feature class, I have a dimension layer and I want to add more dimensions(aligned dimension for example) to my map using arcpy

I use the following code to add polygons to my feature dataset but I couldn't do the same to the dimension layer using arcpy.Dimension class:

import arcpy

# Create a polygon geometry
array = arcpy.Array([arcpy.Point(0, 0),
                     arcpy.Point(0, 1000),
                     arcpy.Point(20, 900)
                     ])
polygon = arcpy.Polygon(array)

# Open an InsertCursor and insert the new geometry
cursor = arcpy.da.InsertCursor(r'C:\Users\kejla\Documents\ArcGIS\Projects\Gaza_Municapility\Default.gdb\test_polygon', ['SHAPE@'])
cursor.insertRow([polygon])

# Delete cursor object
del cursor

A polygon needs 4 points to form a triangle, you need to add the first point to the end of the list to close the polygon

I don't have problems in creating polygons, could you please guide me on how to do the same for the dimension layer, in other words how to add new dimension using arcpy

There is no "arcpy" method of creating one from scratch.

Create a dimension feature class—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

is all I can find
