	Insert	Inserts the straight dimension to the database. (Overrides DatabaseObjectInsert.)
	IsEqual	Compares the current object with an object of the same type. (Overrides DrawingObjectIsEqual(Object).)
	IsSameDatabaseObject	Returns true if the current object and the given object are referencing the same database object. (Inherited from DatabaseObject.)
	Modify	Modifies the existing straight dimension in the database. (Overrides DatabaseObjectModify.)
	Select	Selects the straight dimension from the database. (Overrides DatabaseObjectSelect.)
	SetUserProperty(String, Double)	Sets a double property for the drawing object. The object has to be in a drawing before the method can be used. (Inherited from DatabaseObject.)
	SetUserProperty(String, Int32)	Sets an integer property for the drawing object. The object has to be in a drawing before the method can be used. (Inherited from DatabaseObject.)
