zig zag broken dimension
(OP)
Is it possible to show a broken dimension without a broken view? I want to show a dimension relative to the floor. I wanted to just sketch a line for the floor then edit a dimension and show the dim line with a break.

Was hoping there was something like this in SW.

Here is a work-around if the zigzag is acceptable. You can sketch an arc in the detail view. Add a radiius dimension and a dimension from your edge to the arc centerpoint. You then make the radius dimension a foreshortened dimesnion. You can put the arc on a hidden layer, hide the radius dimension and hide the appropriate dimension and witness lines. This was done in 2009. I could not get the double arrows even though I have it set in the document options.
