Is there a way to force both model dimensions automatically added and drawing dimensions added manually to a drawing to diplay the same.  That is, either all dimensions display as black or all dimensions display as grey.  I realize that the manually added dimensions are not parametric back to the part file.

RE: force Drawing dimension font diplay

You can go to Tools/Options/Colors and change the color of Driving and Driven dimensions so that the all look the same, although I wouldn't recommend doing that.  You could create confusion for yourself down the road.

Putting dims on a layer will force colors.
