How to make an NX arc length dimension look like an I-deas arc length dimension
How to make an NX arc length dimension look like an I-deas arc length dimension
(OP)
Is there any way to make the arc length dimension in NX look like the arc length dimension in I-Deas? I've included a screen shot comparing the two. I know that, if the dimension is interior to the arc it will look like I-Deas but I want it to be exterior to the arc, as shown in the picture.

Well, we've been down this road several times before and what you have there is a NON-standard dimension. NX only creates STANDARD Arc Length dimensions. Here's the link to the last time this was discussed:

Thanks John
If you can answer, are you going to any RUGs this year?

See you there (make sure you identify yourself so that we can put a face with the moniker).
