Coordinate Dimension - FTA

Coordinate Dimension - FTA

Coordinate Dimension - FTA

(OP)
Morning,

This is a sanity check...

After making a Coordinate Dimension from the Functional Tolerancing & Annotation workbench, I wanted to make the dimension appear parallel to screen.

When I click on Properties, there is no "Display Tab", which is where the option to make something appear parallel to screen would be.

Generic text, I have the option. Coordinate Dimension, I do not. Has it always been that way?

Thanks!

DJ

Since it appears that parallel to screen option is no bueno....There has to be a macro out there in the world that will grab the XYZ coordinate and put it into a Text with Leader or just Text.

Anyone know of such a thing? I'm searching the vast consciousness of the interwebs right now.

RE: Coordinate Dimension - FTA

select the FTA view containing the dimension, then hit the Normal View icon to see the "true view" of the dimension
