What should I do to be able to constantly draw rectangles with let’s say 2mm stroke while having the dimension drawn with 1mm stroke and with the arrows ?
Usually I press “r” for rectangle, choose 2mm stroke and choose no arrows, then draw a rectangle,
now when I press “d” for dimensions, set the arrows on and stroke to 1mm, then I draw dimensions for this first rectangle,
then I need to draw another rectangle but it is drawn with 1mm and arrows till I change the stroke for the rectangle again. And again and again every time I want to use a different tool… aaargh!!! →
How to separate those two strokes?
How to set the line strokes and arrows SEPARATELY ??
Do you have any clue?

You simply can´t, neither Inkscape can nor iDraw or any other vektor-drawing app I know.
Intaglio isn´t a technically drawing suite, maybe try free SketchUp or DraftSight.
I for myself separate drawing from labeling in Intaglio and use the Window-“geometry”-tab to get the right dimension in first place.
Thank you Frank Now I still believe that I am not that old as it seemed to
So: I draw first, dimensioning by simply looking at what geometry tells me and then I draw in all the dimension lines later. This is what I am used to.
But this is a bit of hell and I get frustrated every time I do it
