    A couple of questions on this:

    1. Would it be okay to have a separate spec creation service much like the upcoming Adobe XD service? On this service, anyone with a link, can select any objects, and view its dimensions (W/H), colors, fonts etc. Or should it be inside Illustrator.

    2. Are you only going to create horizontal, and vertical dimensions? Or would you also like to have angular dimensions as well?

    Please share more details about your workflow.

    Thanks,
    Yogesh

    The extension Dimensions Powerscript mentioned by Oliver works very fine. And at a very, very reasonable price..

    I too was desperately looking for that feature. This plugin, costing $ 25,–, is quite useful for me: https://o2creative.co.nz/shop/Add_Dimensions_PowerScript_for_Adobe_Illustrator
    I hope it helps.

    Marty, you are right, but such suggestions were very helpful for me to find a solution while Illustrator is not able to meet our needs.
