Basic Dims in Inventor 10

(OP)
How do I indicate that a dimension is basic (Y14.5) w/ Inventor 10?

RE: Basic Dims in Inventor 10

Just right click on the dimension and go to "Edit". There you will find a pulldown menu for the type of tolerance. Pull the menu down and select "BASIC". This will automatically put a box around the dimension. Actually that's how it's done in 11. I know INV 10 had different options when you right clicked on the dimension but I think Edit was one of them. Either way, right clicking on the dimension is where you start.
  Good luck and let me know how it goes.
