Hi everyone,

Sometimes I have to put my drawing dimensions on the sketch of the part rather than the part itself.
But I can only do that with ordinate dimensions since when I hide the sketch, the linear dimensions disappear.
See this picture: [URL unfurl="true"]http://i.imgur.com/5iBDvIO.jpg[/url]

How can I prevent linear dimensions from disappearing?

Thank you

Right-click the sketch in the FM and select the Show Dimension option.

I knew it would be something so obvious.
Thank you CorBlimeyLimey
