Echo What the previous poster said, while I was typing.

RE: Ordinate dimension

Angular Ordinate dimensioning is NOT possible in NX yet, but in other CAD software.

RE: Ordinate dimension

I have never heard of angular ordinate dimensions nor do I think it is included in any drafting standard . . .
but I could be wrong here.
It looks like AutoCAD could have an angular ordinate dimension, but they are terrible at following drafting standards.
