Matt,
Thanks for the help again but,
1) We are using ordinate dimensions and the extension lines don't turn off using this method.
2) The checker is not the problem, he agrees with us. It goes higher than that. Some things are just too sacred to change.
3) Solidworks has told us it is not a standard and won't change it unless we can prove it is a standard by getting more clarification from the ANSI people. We asked for clarification from the ANSI people six month ago and have heard very little back that would help us out.
Thanks for the try. It was worth a shot.
