In the drawing setup file, the option default_lindim_text_orientation is the option that changes the dimension orientation.

Steve, I'm not sure you can set limit dimensions to show as "stacked" if that's what you're asking. As far as I know they'll only show in a single line. This is acceptable per ASME Y14.5.

Limit dimensions can be displayed stacked as that is how we do them.

Set your config.pro for the display style your company prefers.

What is the option in config.pro? I can't seem to locate it. Thanks.

Look in the drawing properties/.dtl files.
