Dimensioning Obround/Oval Hole Features in Inventor 9

Dimensioning Obround/Oval Hole Features in Inventor 9

(OP)
I'm having trouble being able to dimension to the center point of an obround/oval hole feature in Inventor 9. The dimension tool will only snap on the either one of the hole centers for the feature. I would prefer to dimension to the true center of the feature.

I've used the obround punch tool, I've created obround ifeatures and no matter how I create the feature I cannot dimension to the true center. Does anyone have some advise?
