Updating dims in in drawing, unassociated dims don't change color?

Updating dims in in drawing, unassociated dims don't change color?

Updating dims in in drawing, unassociated dims don't change color?

(OP)
Okay, I know there is just a box that I need to check somewhere, but I can't figure this out.  Works fine for the other guy that uses Catia, but if I delete a feature in a model, then update the drawing any dimensions associated with that now missing feature just stay where they are and stay black.  This just makes it a little more difficult to make sure I delete any unused dimensions...

Can someone please tell me where to fix this?

thanks...

RE: Updating dims in in drawing, unassociated dims don't change color?

I believe that's an option to set.
Go to Tools > Options > Mechanical Design > Drafting > Dimension (Tab) and it's at the bottom of that page, "Analysis Display Mode."
