This is a good read. I ran into an interesting meta-problem on page 12 (numbered page 9 on the page itself).
What do you call the diagram labeling?
The single world label pointing at a feature with a line could be a 'callout' perhaps.
What is the word-in/around-arrow pointing to two vertical lines? A range indicator?
It looks like: |<--label-->|
I've also seen a variation where the word points to a line covering the range with bracketed ends, somewhat like:
label -[ feature
It's a similar problem to "what do I call that operator?" when you don't know what it is, like ?: being "the ternary" operator (or more precisely the conditional operator)
- alien_acorn 13y agoThe best description I could find was "dimension line," but all the examples have numeric measurements rather than descriptive text.
- triggercut 13y agoIn technical drawing. "Dimension line" is correct. More specifically a "dimension line indicating a feature". A single character (usually in a "bubble" or circle) would be a callout. One or more words in combination with an extension-line and an arrow-head would be a "note".
